Jaisalmer Fort was constructed in 1156 AD by Rawal Jaisal, a Bhati Rajput ruler, after whom the city of Jaisalmer is named. It stands as one of the largest fully preserved fortified cities in the world, known for its distinctive yellow sandstone architecture that glows golden at sunset.
As a living fort where a significant portion of the city's population still resides, Jaisalmer Fort itself does not have a general entry fee. However, certain specific attractions within the fort complex, such as the Royal Palace museum or the ancient Jain temples, may require individual entrance tickets, which are typically purchased directly at the site.
Inside Jaisalmer Fort, visitors can explore narrow winding lanes, ancient Havelis with intricate carvings, and bustling markets. Key attractions include the Royal Palace, a group of seven finely sculpted Jain Temples, and the Lakshminath Temple. The fort also offers panoramic views of Jaisalmer city from its ramparts and is home to numerous guesthouses, shops, and restaurants.
On a guided tour of Jaisalmer, you can explore major highlights such as the magnificent Jaisalmer Fort, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
