Jaisalmer: what to expect
Jaisalmer rises from the Thar desert in golden sandstone. Its fort is one of the few living forts in India, with shops, houses and guesthouses inside its walls.
The desert experience, camel rides and a night under the stars, is the main reason most people come, and it is worth choosing the camp carefully.
