Jaisalmer Travel, Rajasthan |
Golden splendor amid the desert  Jaisalmer – the golden beauty,
etched in yellow sandstone. Perched atop the Trikuta Hill,
it stands tall against miles of gleaming sand. Epitomising
the desolate, awesome charm of the desert.
Jaisalmer, the city of the golden fort is a fantasy
in yellow sandstone in the heart of the Thar Desert.
The city was founded in 1156 by Rawal Jaisal, a Bhatti Rajput
King.
Legend has it, that Lord Krishna – the head of Yadav
Clan, foretold Arjuna that a remote descendent of Yadav
Clan would build his kingdom atop the Trikuta Hill. His prophecy
was fulfilled, when in 1156 AD Rawal Jaisal, a descendant
of Yadav Clan and a Bhatti Rajput, founded the city
of Jaisalmer.
This amber-hued city, in the heart of the desert, dazzles
gloriously in the early morning. The sunset has a peculiar
glow here. As the night descends, the sky goes up in flames,
which fade leaving a few embers, till it becomes black.
A breathtaking sight indeed!
Jaisalmer is famous for cobbled streets, strewn with palaces,
forts, temples and havelis. Every house, here, is exquisitely
carved, having filigreed work all over. These houses date back
to 12th – 15th century. And hence Jaisalmer is called
'the Museum city'. Filled with colour, festivity
and smiles, Jaisalmer is truly a memorable experience across
the shimmering sands.
