Nicknamed the Golden City, Jaisalmer is one of the most romantic destinations in India and well worth the effort to reach.
Standing on the edge of the Thar Desert, Jaisalmer is a fort city with many finely sculpted Jain temples and ornate mini-palaces known as havelis.
Jaisalmer’s havelis are wonderful places to stay and for many people is the highlight of a tour of northern India.
Most people visiting Jaisalmer take a tour or camel safari into the Thar Desert for the chance to sleep under the stars.
