Plan your Day trip at most spectacular Sand dunes - Jaisalmer

A day in desert city can create life time memories, if you can plan right way. Along with desert safari and Banjara dance, here are some more must do activities if you are visiting Jaisalmer sand dunes.

We have started our day with Badabag temple, followed by beautiful Jain Temple and the ghost village Kuldhara. We were exhausted by that time, so get refreshed beside the lonely Jiseri lake. In the evening we went for Camel safari, enjoyed the mesmerising sunset at Sand dunes and ended our day by watching folk dance with endless starts in the sky of the great Indian Desert.

BADA-BAG TEMPLE

Bada Bagh Temple

Start your day with a spectacular sunrise at Bada Bag Cheries. Bada Bag means grand garden- a set of royal chhatri cenotaphs constructed by the Maharajas of the Jaisalmer State in the 18th to early 20th centuries.

Calm atmosphere and cool breeze will surely make you feel plasent. I must say it definitely worth a early morning visit.

Can you see, so many windmills around this place, we have never seen windmills so close ever. It’s lovely hah!! ..

Note: You can see similar kind of Chatri cenotaphs in Vyass chatri as well, another place to visit in Jaisalmer

KULDHARA - HAUNTED VILLAGE

Kuldhara

Ghost towns and villages hold a charm very different from the ruins of castles and fortresses, mostly because they give us a chance to peep right into the lives of the people who once inhabited them.

17 kilometers from Jaisalmer, nestles a town called Kuldharais one of the most haunted village in India? The deserted, narrow and ancient streets of Kuldhara are the source of myths, spooky folklore ,and stories of ghosts and paranormal activity.
