The museum inside the fort displays artifacts, armor, and paintings that provide insight into the royal lifestyle.

Jaswant Thada

Next, visit Jaswant Thada, a beautiful white marble cenotaph built in memory of Maharaja Jaswant Singh II. This tranquil spot is surrounded by lush gardens and offers picturesque views of the Mehrangarh Fort. The intricacy of the marble work and the serene environment make it an ideal spot for reflection and photography.

Umaid Bhawan Palace

In the evening, explore the Clock Tower Market and indulge in some local shopping. The market offers a variety of traditional Rajasthani handicrafts, textiles, and spices. Afterward, enjoy a traditional Rajasthani dinner at a local restaurant before retiring for the night.

Jodhpur to Jaisalmer

After a fulfilling breakfast, you will leave Jodhpur and embark on a scenic drive to Jaisalmer, a city that seems to rise from the golden sands of the Thar Desert. The journey takes approximately 5-6 hours, so sit back and enjoy the desert landscape as you make your way to Jaisalmer, known as the "Golden City."

Jaisalmer Fort (Sonar Quila)

The highlight of Jaisalmer is the Jaisalmer Fort, also known as Sonar Quila (Golden Fort). This 12th-century fort is one of the largest living forts in the world, with narrow lanes, temples, and shops housed within its walls. It’s made of yellow sandstone, which gives it a golden glow, particularly during sunset, hence its name. Inside, explore the Raj Mahal (royal palace), Lakshminath Temple, and various havelis and Jain temples.

Patwon Ki Haveli

Next, visit the Patwon Ki Haveli, a grand mansion with exquisite carvings and architecture. This five-story haveli is one of the most famous and largest in Jaisalmer, with each floor offering stunning views of the city.

Sam Sand Dunes

In the late afternoon, head to the Sam Sand Dunes, located about 40 km from Jaisalmer. This is where you can experience the essence of the desert.
