Discover India’s Cultural Crown
Embark on a journey that captures the soul of India in
Rising like a golden mirage from the sands of the Thar Desert, Jaisalmer is one of Rajasthan’s most enchanting destinations. Often called the “Golden City”, Jaisalmer glows in hues of honey-yellow sandstone, with its fort, havelis, and desert landscapes creating a postcard-perfect scene straight out of a fairy tale.
Founded in 1156 AD by Rawal Jaisal, a Rajput ruler, Jaisalmer quickly rose to prominence as a strategic trading center along the ancient camel trade routes between India and Central Asia. The city’s wealth is reflected in its magnificent palaces and intricately carved mansions. The crown jewel is the Jaisalmer Fort, also known as Sonar Quila (Golden Fort), one of the few “living forts” in the world—still home to thousands of people.
While its grandeur lies in the golden glow of its architecture, Jaisalmer’s soul lives in its desert life—marked by vibrant folk music, traditional attire, camel caravans, and cultural tales told under star-lit skies.
Built entirely from yellow sandstone, this UNESCO World Heritage Site rises majestically above the city. It houses palaces, Jain temples, shops, and homes—offering a rare glimpse of a living medieval fort.
Experience the raw beauty of the Thar Desert with a camel safari or jeep ride across golden dunes, followed by a traditional Rajasthani cultural show under the stars.
A group of five intricately designed havelis, this is Jaisalmer’s most elaborate mansion, known for its stunning architecture, balconies, and mirror work.
Located within the fort, these 12th–16th century temples are carved from golden sandstone and are architectural marvels featuring exquisite carvings and ancient scriptures.
A peaceful artificial lake built in the 14th century, surrounded by temples, chhatris, and ghats—perfect for photography and quiet moments.
Held annually in February, the festival features camel races, folk music, turban tying, and dance competitions that celebrate the spirit of desert life.
