About Bharuch

Located on the banks of the Narmada River, Bharuch combines a long historical identity with the character of one of Gujarat’s important industrial regions.

Bharuch is one of the historically significant cities of Gujarat. It has been known by several names through history, including Bhrugukachchha, Bharukachchha and Broach. Its geographical position near the Narmada River and the Gulf of Khambhat helped it develop as an important centre of trade and commerce.

For centuries, the city acted as a connection between inland India and maritime trading routes. This historic association with transport, trade and movement of goods has remained an important part of Bharuch’s identity.
