 If you like Fort, Jain Temples, Geology, Desert,then Jaisalmer is where you need to go. Jaisalmer traces its inception to the 12th century. The Jaisalmer Fort also called Sonar Qila means Golden Fort. The fort houses ancient havelis, shops, hotels,etc which makes it complete tourist attraction. The Wood Fossil Park, where one can discover and trace geologic tragedies that occurred in the Thar Desert around 180 million years ago.  |

The majority of desert camps are located on and near to the Sam Sand Dunes. which is about 45 minutes west of Jaisalmer.
However, we like non-touristy option as it provides more authentic experience. The sand dunes around Barna and Khuri villages. which is about an hour southwest of Jaisalmer.
