After breakfast leave for Golden city Jaisalmer en-route lunch break at Thar
oasis Resort and continue drive to towards Desert city. This desert fortress, which
is a few miles from the border with Pakistan, is one of Rajasthan's most exotic
and unusual towns. Jaisalmer, was an important ancient trading centre because of
its strategic location on the camel trade routes, and is often described as the
'golden city'. The havelis (manor houses), built by merchants of the 19th century,
are exquisitely carved from golden-yellow sandstone and some are still in a
beautiful condition. A few are open to visitors.
The fort built by the Bhatti ruler, Rawal Jaisal in the 12th century, stands on the 80
metre high Trikuta hill, and features beautifully carved Jain temples. Over the
centuries, the golden sand stone fortress witnessed many battles between the
Bhattis, the Mughals and the Rathore of Jodhpur. The annual desert festival takes
place in January and February each year and is a riot of colour and activity.

Within the fort complex lie the beautifully carved Jain Temples built between the 12th
and 15th centuries. The Maharawals (rulers) of Jaisalmer were devout Hindus but were
tolerant of Jainism, and encouraged art and religion. There are seven temples in the
complex which are connected by a series of corridors and walkways. Close-by is the
Gyan Bhandar, a library founded in 1500 A.D. This houses priceless ancient manuscripts
and other exhibits such as astrological charts, as well as the Jain equivalent of the
Christian Shroud of Turin.
Later in the afternoon proceed to Sam, where you have laid on a safari in the Sam Sand
dunes. Located at a distance of 42 kilometres from Jaisalmer, Sam Sand Dunes is the
closest point to experience the total sandy desert.
Here you can see the patterns and motifs created by the shifting sands. Here, you will
have the unforgettable experience of a camel ride at sunset topped by dinner under the
stars, before you return to your hotel.
