Golden Treasures of the Desert: Must-Visit Places in Jaisalmer

From ancient forts and haunted villages to glittering lakes and desert adventures, every corner of this city shines with history and wonder. Here's a curated list of top places to visit in Jaisalmer to make your trip with TourMyHoliday unforgettable:
1. Jaisalmer Fort – The Living Fort of Legends
Standing proudly like a golden crown, the Jaisalmer Fort (Sonar Quila) is one of the last living forts in the world. Inside its golden sandstone walls lie centuries of history, charming homes, temples, havelis, and shops. Explore narrow alleys, admire intricate carvings, and soak in panoramic views of the city from its ramparts. This UNESCO World Heritage Site is the soul of Jaisalmer.
2. Patwon Ki Haveli – A Symphony of Carved Stone
A true architectural masterpiece, Patwon Ki Haveli is a cluster of five havelis built by wealthy Jain merchants. With its detailed jharokhas, mirror work, and murals, this haveli is a visual treat. It tells the story of Jaisalmer's opulence and cultural richness through every beautifully carved doorway.
3. Gadisar Lake – The City’s Tranquil Heartbeat
Originally built to solve Jaisalmer’s water needs, Gadisar Lake is now one of the most serene places to visit. With temples, chhatris, and ghats lining its shores, it's a perfect place to relax or enjoy a peaceful boat ride. Early morning or sunset at the lake feels nothing short of magical.
4. Sam Sand Dunes – The Thar in All Its Glory
The golden waves of the Sam Sand Dunes offer the ultimate desert experience. Whether it's dune bashing, desert photography, or simply watching the sun dip behind the dunes, this place captures the spirit of Rajasthan’s wild desert. It’s the heart of every Jaisalmer desert safari.
5. Camel Safari – Ride Like the Desert Royals
Glide across the sands on a traditional Jaisalmer camel safari, just like the nomads once did. Feel the slow rhythm of the desert, spot remote villages, and experience the vast silence of the Thar. It's peaceful, picturesque, and pure Rajasthan!
6. Desert Camping – A Night Under a Million Stars
Spend an unforgettable night in a cozy desert camp beneath a sky full of stars. With folk music, bonfire, delicious Rajasthani dinner, and cool desert winds, desert camping in Jaisalmer is both romantic and adventurous. TourMyHoliday ensures you get the most authentic desert stay.
7. Kuldhara Village – The Haunted Heritage of Jaisalmer
Step into mystery at Kuldhara, an abandoned village wrapped in legends. Once a prosperous settlement of Paliwal Brahmins, it was suddenly deserted overnight. Walk through its silent ruins and feel the eerie charm of Rajasthan’s most famous ghost town.
8. Jain Temples – Spiritual Gems in Golden Stone
Nestled inside the Jaisalmer Fort, the Jain Temples are architectural marvels built between the 12th and 16th centuries. Dedicated to various Jain Tirthankaras, these temples boast intricate carvings and a peaceful aura. Don’t miss their beautifully sculpted pillars and domes.
9. Local Bazaars – Shop the Royal Way
Explore the vibrant local bazaars of Jaisalmer—like Sadar Bazaar, Bhatia Bazaar, and Pansari Bazaar. Shop for embroidered textiles, camel leather goods, mirror-work dresses, handmade jewelry, and Rajasthani artifacts. Bargain, sip chai, and take home a piece of the desert.
10. Tanot Mata Temple – The Goddess Who Guards the Border
Located near the Indo-Pak border, the sacred Tanot Mata Temple holds a special place in every traveler’s heart. Legend says the temple remained untouched during heavy shelling in the 1971 war. A visit here is both spiritual and patriotic—a serene stop in your Jaisalmer journey.
What to Pack & What to Skip for Your Jaisalmer Tour with TourMyHoliday
Heading into the desert? Packing right can make your Jaisalmer adventure even more enjoyable. From the blazing sands of Sam Dunes to the chill of starry desert nights, here’s your go-to guide on what to bring—and what to leave behind for a hassle-free experience with TourMyHoliday.
What to Pack: Essentials for the Golden City
1. Lightweight Cotton Clothes (Breathable & Comfortable)
Jaisalmer can be hot during the day. Pack loose cotton shirts, t-shirts, and full-sleeve tops to stay cool and protect your skin from the sun.
2. Warm Layers for the Evening
Desert nights can get surprisingly chilly—especially from October to February. Bring a light jacket, hoodie, or shawl for those cool evenings around the bonfire.
3. Sunglasses, Hat/Cap & Scarf
The desert sun is bright and intense. Protect your eyes and skin with sunglasses and a wide-brimmed hat. A scarf or dupatta can help cover your face during the camel ride or jeep safari.
4. Sunscreen & Lip Balm
Dry desert air and harsh sun can cause sunburn and chapped lips. Use SPF 30+ sunscreen and a good lip balm with SPF to stay protected.
5. Comfortable Footwear
Bring a pair of walking shoes or sneakers for fort and city exploration, and open sandals/slippers for the campsite. Avoid heels or heavy boots.
6. Reusable Water Bottle
Stay hydrated! A refillable bottle is eco-friendly and useful during long drives or dune activities.
7. Toiletries & Personal Hygiene Kit
Include basics like hand sanitizer, tissues, toothbrush, toothpaste, face wipes, and moisturizer.
8. Torch or Headlamp
Useful in desert camps at night or for exploring less-lit areas during fort visits.
9. Power Bank & Charging Cables
There might be limited access to charging points in the desert camps, so carry a fully charged power bank.
10. Personal Medicines & First Aid Kit
Carry any prescribed medication, basic first aid (band-aids, pain relievers, motion sickness tablets), and ORS sachets for dehydration.
What to Skip: Leave These Behind
1. Expensive Jewelry & Valuables
Avoid carrying gold, diamonds, or other high-value items. You won’t need them in the desert, and it’s safer to leave them at home.
2. Heavy Luggage & Overpacking
Stick to a compact backpack or trolley. You’ll be on the move, and light packing helps during camel rides and camp transfers.
3. Fancy Footwear
Heels, fancy leather shoes, or formal footwear are of no use in sandy terrain and desert adventures.
4. Overloaded Makeup Kits
The desert heat isn’t friendly to heavy makeup. Go for a minimalist approach—just the basics like sunscreen, lip balm, kajal, or a tinted moisturizer.
5. Unnecessary Gadgets
Leave behind laptops or bulky electronics unless you really need them. Focus on the experience, not screen time!
6. Food Items or Liquids in Large Quantities
Snacks are fine, but skip carrying large food jars or multiple drinks. Refreshments will be available at camps and markets.
