Visit the World Heritage Site of Jaisalmer Fort, a vast, sandstone complex that reveals a bustling town within its walls. Built in 1156, the “golden fort,” as the massive fortress is known, acted as a sort of camouflage for the city, blending in with the sweeping sands of the Thar Desert. Take a guided tour to learn about the history of the fort, or take your time and explore the narrow lanes, lined with craft shops, temples, and eateries. Perched on top of a 76 m (250 ft) tall hill, the fortress dominates the surrounding parts of the city and offers panoramic vistas.

One of the best forts in Rajasthan, stunningly golden! While it's a live-in fort and hence the entrance as well as the general area may not look clean but the views from the fort are just awesome...

Visited during desert festival 2023. Awesome experience with friends. Fort is near to railway station and airport, which makes it the first place to visit Jaisalmer. Holds the history of the first-century kings and their long-lasting brethren which still live there. Atop the fort claims a stunning view of the Golden city.

One of the best live fort in India. It is a combination of fort and shopping. You can see a lot of shops selling clothes, souvenirs, ornaments etc etc. You can have a good view of the golden city from top of the fort. Temples and restaurants are also present here. In the street at the entrance of the fort also there are many shops. It is a must visit spot.
