Jaisalmer, the golden city

        Jaisalmer  is the gateway to the Thar Desert. It is a popular tourist destination in India that is notable for its incredible yellow stone architecture, the Jaisalmer Fort, also known as ‘Sonar Quila’.
      The fort is  massive yellow sandstone fortification that maintains the Raj Mahal and several havelis, gateways and temples. The tawny-brown rampart that turns into honey-gold at sunset, justifying the name “Sonar Quila”, is undoubtedly a blazing instance of visual perception.

The architectural design of the fort having intricately carved windows, doors and walls is one of the fine examples of the rich heritage in India. Located on the Trikuta Hill and overlooking the Jaisalmer city, the Jaisalmer Fort is thus one of the popular tourist attractions in Jaisalmer. Moreover, the two canon points, located at vantage points within the fort, give you an amazing panoramic view of Jaisalmer city.

      Approximately 42 kilometers from the fort city of Jaisalmer, the SAM Sand Dunes in the outskirts… is for sure the best recommended places to see in Jaisalmer. The exanimate ambiance with stretches of sweeping dunes, camel safari along the breathtaking crests and troughs and crimson horizon at the sunset together drops you to a pleasing blissful landscape.

Don’t miss the rustic and earthy music and folk dance of the gypsies that depicts the rural culture of the Rajasthani folk. 

   Gadi sagar lake is one more  the best place to visit for sightseeing tours in Jaisalmer, which is today a popular tourist hangout. The lake encircles several temples with the most notable being the Krishna Temple that is located on top of the Tilon Gate.

     During the winter season, migratory birds flock the region and bird watching becomes a favorite activity in Jaisalmer. Further, boat riding in the Gadsisar Lake is yet another exciting thing to do in Jaisalmer. 

     Tourists planning a holiday to Jaisalmer can try the scrumptious ethnic cuisine of Rajasthan. The mouth-watering murgh-e-subz (succulent, boneless strips of chicken stir-fried with shredded vegetables) is the most popular dish among tourists here. The delicious ker sangri (desert beans and capers) is unique to Jaisalmer. Interested tourists can also try bhanon aloo (stuffed potatoes with mint paste and simmered in gravy) and kadi pakora (flour dumplings cooked in yogurt sauce) which are available in the restaurants of Jaisalmer.
