Jaisalmer||Rajasthan

"JAISALMER IS THE HEART OF THE LARGEST STATE OF INDIA WHICH IS RAJASTHAN"

The best time to visit this place is November to February when there is arrival of winters and upto the spring . This place is not only for the sand dunes but for the awesome forts and the temple.
Not everyone knows that one temple is located near pakistan border almost about 14 k/m is "KARNI MATA" this temple is famous for Goddess Durga .
If someone is really interested in to see the sunset then this is the right place to visit . One of the best thing of jaisalmer is the local market of jaisalmer.

So I would suggest that whenever you visit this place never keep in mind that you are tourist try to explore this place as if we are the local of that place and if anyone visit to this place try to figure out history of this place .

6 places to visit which I would prefer

*Jaisalmer fort:Normally a fort is teeming with tourists, guards, tickets and red tape but this feels much more like a community. We explored the entire fort looking inside the rustic gem shops, and the admiring the beautifully woven textiles and rugs. Shopping didn’t seem like one of the most popular things to do in Jaisalmer but crafts and textiles are for sale throughout India and they were beautifully made in Jaisalmer.

*Bada bagh:The entrance fee was 100 rupees and not a single tourist was at the site when we arrived in mid-morning. Essentially Bada Bagh is a cemetery. Years ago the founder of Jaisalmer commissioned a dam to create a water tank to be built at the site, which meant it was the only green area in the region at times during the year. It is also the reason why there is a lake next to Bada Bagh, seemingly in the middle of a huge desert. This is how it earnt the name Bada Bagh or ‘Big Garden’. The Maharajah had a cenotaph built for his father atop the hill and many more cenotaphs more followed after for important figures. A cenotaph is a small temple or tribute statue for a deceased relative. This was one of the most unique things to do in Jaisalmer.

*Gadi sagar lake:Temples sit out in the water, almost as if they were floating and the sound of traffic from the city is too far to break the serenity. Visiting Gadi Sagar Lake would be rated as one of the best things to do in Jaisalmer for sunrise in my opinion. Hanging out on the walls of the fort for sunrise could be epic also.

*Rooftop cafe:There are many to choose from. In fact, it is harder to find a cafe inside of a building than to enjoy the views from on top.  Having dinner at one of the rooftop restaurants is a must do activity in Jaisalmer.

*Haveli hunting :haveli is essentially a mansion and when rich people build, they do it in style. Haveli’s are usually detailed exquisite exteriors and are a sight to behold. There are many Haveli’s to explore in Jaisalmer and we were asked to pay to enter inside them but decided our view from the outside was good enough. You will find Haveli’s throughout the city but if you are looking for them specifically, my favorite was the Patwaon-Ki-Haveli.

*Camel safari :While exploring the Golden City it’s likely you will be offered a camel safari in Jaisalmer. It’s the most popular tourist attraction in the western region of Rajasthan. The Sam Sand Dunes are on the outskirts of Jaisalmer in the Desert National Park provide the perfect landscape for slow-paced trekking and escaping the city.
