Stop At: Jaisalmer Fort, Fort Road, Jaisalmer 345001 India
Jaisalmer’s fort is a living urban centre, with about 3000 people residing within its walls. It is honeycombed with narrow winding lanes, lined with houses and temples – along with a large number of handicraft shops, guesthouses and restaurants. You enter the fort from the east, near Gopa Chowk, and pass through four massive gates on the zigzagging route to the upper section. The final gate opens into the square that forms the fort’s centre, Dashera Chowk.
Duration: 2 hours
Stop At: Jain Temples, Jaisalmer Fort, Jaisalmer 345001 India

Duration: 30 minutes
Stop At: Salim Singh-ki Haveli, Near Jaisalmer Fort, Jaisalmer India
This 18th-century haveli (traditional, ornately decorated residence) has an amazing, distinctive shape. It’s narrow for the first floors, and then the top storey spreads out into a mass of carving, with graceful arched balconies surmounted by pale-blue cupolas. The beautifully arched roof has superb carved brackets in the form of peacocks
Duration: 30 minutes
Stop At: Kothari's Patwaon-Ki-Haveli, Near Patwa Complex, Patwa Haveli, Jaisalmer 345001 India
The biggest fish in the haveli (traditional, ornately decorated residence) pond is Patwa-ki-Haveli, which towers over a narrow lane, its intricate stonework like honey-coloured lace. Divided into five sections, it was built between 1800 and 1860 by five Jain brothers who made their fortunes in brocade and jewellery. It’s all very impressive from the outside; however, the first of the five sections, the privately owned Kothari’s Patwa-ki-Haveli Museum, richly evokes 19th-century life and is the only one worth paying entry for.
Other sections include two largely empty government-owned 'museums' and two private sections containing shops.
Duration: 30 minutes
Stop At: Mandir Palace, Jaisalmer India
A Prominent Landmark In This Spectacular Heritage City Is Mandir Palace, Which Had Been The Residence Of The Rulers Of Jaisalmer For More Than Two Centuries. Mandir Palace Is An Exquisitely Carved Architectural Marvel Of Ornate Balconies, Canopies And Delicately Carved Screens That Represent A High Point Of Local Craftsmanship In Its Finest And Purest Form.
