Jaisalmer

The westernmost part of Rajasthan holds a beautiful Golden city named Jaisalmer. As the name stands the city is brightened up by its golden sands and that is what that pulls the tourists from across the globe to praise its beauty.

The city is adorned with iconic sand deserts and the huge and massive mansions decorated all with Rajasthani arts. The city is a true depiction of the royalty of the state.

Talking about the city, it would be a sin not to mention its famous desert festival taking place during the months of January- February. The festival is a huge affair that attracts tourists from around the world. People look forward to be a part of this gala celebration. The main attraction of this festival is the Camel dances, camel races, folk dance, and music. Visiting this city during these months is the best idea. 

The city sees least tourists during the summer months as summer is too hot in this desert land, still, some people who really want to experience the desert heat make their ways during summer months.

The city also serves the mouth-watering authentic Rajasthani cuisine. Gobbling on the authentic Rajasthani restaurant is a must-do thing here.

The main tourist’s attraction here are-

  • Jaisalmer Fort- Regarded as the biggest and the most beautiful landmark of the city, the fort sees maximum tourists visiting this city.
  • Manakchowk market- must visit place for shopping enthusiasts.
  • The Jain temple- constructed between the 12th and 15th century, the temple makes a peaceful place to be visited.
