Jaisalmer
Jaisalmer rises almost organically from the Thar desert, its sandstone houses mirroring the surrounding landscape and building up to the crumbling crescendo of the Jaisalmer Fort, perched regally over the town. Dating back to 1156, the fort is a labyrinth of winding streets, ornately carved doorways, and painted havelis.
Discover Jaisalmer on foot, dipping into narrow lanes and marveling at the exquisite detailing on the crumbling sandstone walls that have stood strong for almost a millennium. As dusk falls, a camel ride out into the desert is an impossibly romantic way to enjoy this remote and tranquil setting.
