The Jaisalmer Fort, popularly known as Sonar Qila (Golden Fort), is the city's most prominent attraction and a unique one at that. Unlike other forts in India, Jaisalmer Fort is not just a tourist spot but also houses shops, hotels, and ancient havelis where people have lived for generations. Jaisalmer has a rich history that dates back to the 12th century.
Jaisalmer Fort: This is one of the largest forts in the world, and is a must-visit for its grandeur and the breath-taking views it offers.
Sam Sand Dunes: If you want to witness the beauty of the Thar Desert, the Sam Sand Dunes are the perfect place to visit. You can indulge in Desert Safari on camels or jeeps and stay in one of the many desert camps that are built in the area.
Gadsisar Lake: A conservation reservoir built in the 1400s, Gadsisar Lake is a serene spot that is perfect for a peaceful stroll or a boat ride.
Patwon Ki Haveli: An architectural marvel, the Patwon Ki Haveli is a combination of five different havelis and is a treasure trove of rare artefacts, furniture work, miniatures, mirror-work, and a large collection of paintings.
Kuldhara Abandoned Village: Located 18 km from Jaisalmer, the Kuldhara village is a ghost village that has no signs of human life. It is known to be one of the haunted places in Rajasthan and is a popular tourist attraction.
Bada Bagh: A sprawling garden complex located six kilometres from Jaisalmer, Bada Bagh is home to royal tombs and is a great place to visit if you want to witness the rulers' attempts to add some greenery to the desert city.
