Places of interest in Jaisalmer

Akal: A stunning fossil park of a 180 million year old

forest, this bare hillside of mica, red and yellow stone

resembles an army frozen in its tracks with fear.

Excursion to Khuru Village: Located 45 km to the

east of Jaisalmer is a quaint village with clusters of

thatch roof houses and people dressed in traditional

attire. The village is surrounded by high rolling sand

dunes for miles together where you can enjoy a

memorable camel ride or camel safari.

Folklore Museum: If you wish to understand the

culture of Jaisalmer through the ages, you can pay a

visit to the Lok Sanskritik Sangrahalaya or the

Museum of Folk Culture situated on the bank of

Gadsisar.

Gadsisar Lake: This rainwater fed reservoir, was

built in 1156 AD and later rebuilt in 1367AD by

Maharwal Garsisingh. Until 1965, it was the city’s only

water supply. Along the lakeshore and on the islands,

are several little temples and cenotaphs. You can also

spot many beautiful birds here.

Jaisalmer Fort: Jaisalmer Fort was built in 1156 and

is the second oldest in Rajasthan. 250 ft tall and

reinforced by an imposing crenellated sandstone wall

30 feet high, it has 99 bastions, 92 of which were built

between 1633 and 1647. The fort is also known as the

Golden Fort for its amber hue, attracting tourists from

the world over. Almost a quarter of present day

Jaisalmer lies inside the complex of this massive fort.

Did you know?

Jaisalmer is named after its founder Maharawal Jaisal Singh, a Rajput king in 1156 AD. Jaisalmer is sometimes called the ‘Golden City of India’ because the yellow sand and the yellow sandstone used in most of the city’s architecture gives a yellowish-gold tinge to the city and its surrounding area.
