The Jaisalmer Travel Story - 0 views

ronald lee on 17 Sep 12Planning to travel to Jaisalmer? Bravo! Located in the heart of the 'Thar' and aptly known as the 'Sun City', Jaisalmer makes for a regal travel experience indeed. Established in 1156 AD by Maharaja Jaisal Singh, the city is dominated by the Jaisalmer Fort. The vast expanse of the gleaming Thar desert and the extensive use of yellow sand and yellow sandstone in the architecture of the city has also earned it the name, 'Golden City of India'. A couple of interesting destinations near Jaisalmer are Bikaner and Jodhpur.
