Jaisalmer had been on my wish list for a very long time. Having seeing beaches, backwaters, historical places, hill stations and mountains, the desert still remained to be explored. Finally the call came from the desert and one fine day we found ourselves on board the train to Jaisalmer - The Golden City of forts, havelis and the magnificent Thar. It was the cold and foggy winter evening of January 22 this year when we took the 'DLI JSM Express' from Gurgaon railway station. This is the only train that goes directly to Jaisalmer from Delhi via Gurgaon, Jaipur and Jodhpur. It is a sixteen hour journey. All trains were running late those days given the bad weather conditions and where we had to reach at 11:30 next morning we reached just 5 hours late. But being part of a group of 9 ghumakkars including my 15 months old son, the train journey was nothing short of long drawn conversations, nonsensical jokes, repeated bouts of laughter and elaborate meals of poori-bhaji, paranthas, pickle carried by enthusiastic elders in the group. You cannot miss the yummy onion kachoris at Jodhpur station where the train stops next morning. Finally the destination arrived. We reached Jaisalmer station at 4:30 in the evening. As soon as we landed we realised that the warm clothes we had been carrying would not be of any good use as the weather was quite pleasant here. In fact the sun was quite bright even in the evening. We had our booking in hotel Rang Mahal which is around 3.5 km from the railway station. It is a heritage palace hotel, with luxury rooms and decent hospitality.The whole day had already passed in transit so we could not do much except relaxing in the serene environment of the hotel and having a lavish buffet dinner in the garden with Rajasthani folk music and dance. On the first day of the trip we had the following places in the agenda which we set out to explore the next morning after finishing breakfast. Jaisalmer Fort: Also known as Sonar Quila, the 250 feet tall fort was built on the Trikuta hill by the Bhati Rajput ruler Rawal Jaisal over 800 years ago. The city derives its name from this fort.This splendid piece of architecture exudes sheer magic with its massive golden yellow sandstone walls and houses Raja's Mahal, Rani's Mahal, exquisite Jain temples, Laxminath temple and four massive gateways. The fort also houses shops and stalls selling local and traditional products. Raja's Mahal has been converted to a museum that displays an assortment of royal garbs, weapons, marble thrones and British era royal stamps.From the terrace of the mahal one can catch an interesting view of the whole city painted golden with a web of row houses filling up the entire space wherever the eye goes.

Situated in the heart of the Thar desert in Rajasthan, Jaisalmer city built on the foundation of yellow sandstone, justifies its tag as the 'Golden City' of India. The yellow stone monuments glittering in the sunlight is indeed a sight to behold. Jaisalmer offers many places to visit, ranging from yellowed forts to golden palaces and even deserted towns! The unique beauty of the place represented in the contrasting hues of gold against vivid shades of blue and green makes Jaisalmer an unforgettable experience. Built by the Bahti Rajputs, the town of Jaisalmer showcases interesting architecture, intricately carved sculptures and strategically built forts. Here is a list of places to visit in Jaisalmer, covering the major tourist attractions in the region Also called the 'Golden Fort' and locally the 'Sonar Quilla' the Jaisalmer Fort is an iconic symbol of the city. Built by the Rajput ruler Rao Jaisal, this is among the largest forts in the world. Situated in the Thar desert on the Trikuta Hill, the fort has stood witness to many battles. The unique fort situated among the golden sands of Thar and built from yellow sandstone is indeed a breathtaking sight from the outside. The fortification includes three layers of walls that are as high as 30 ft. The fort once the home to royals is now inhabited by hundrends of local families. And the insides of the fort are in a sad shape when compared to the exterior, owing to the improper sanitation system and lack of maintenance. Inside the fort, travellers must explore the Gyan Bhandar library, the Raj Mahal, Laxminath temple, Jain temples, four massive gateways and merchant Havelis. The exquisitely done sculptures and motifs, classic of the Dilwar style, is breathtaking in its beauty.

About a quarter of city's population still live inside the fort. The main attractions inside the fort are: Raj Mahal (Royal palace), Jain temples and the Laxminath temple.
