Jaisalmer: The Golden City of Rajasthan

#favouriteitinerary Jaisalmer, known as the Golden City, captivates visitors with its shimmering sandstone architecture and timeless desert landscapes. The city’s heart is the magnificent Jaisalmer Fort, a sprawling living fortress where bustling markets, ancient temples, and traditional havelis offer a glimpse into centuries-old history. Strolling through the narrow, winding lanes of the old city, you encounter intricately carved facades and vibrant bazaars that echo the rich cultural heritage of Rajasthan. As the day unfolds, the warm hues of the desert come alive under the radiant sun, turning the entire city into a glowing spectacle. In the late afternoon, a camel safari provides a serene escape into the surrounding Thar Desert, culminating in a breathtaking sunset over the undulating dunes. Whether you’re exploring the fortifications, wandering among historic havelis, or simply absorbing the desert atmosphere, Jaisalmer offers an unforgettable journey into the heart of Rajasthan’s storied past.
