Locals and businesses are still inside. One of the biggest in the World and also Unesco World Heritage . Get lost within the walls and don't miss the rooftops

HISTORY TV18

Jaisalmer Fort is one of the largest forts in the world. It was built in 1156 AD by the Bhati Rajput ruler Rao Jaisal, from where it derives it name. It is also known as the "Golden Fort".

There's a long walk up the steep hill , but you can get a auto to take you up the steep part of the climb. The viewpoint on the lower level is also good.

TripStory

Jaisalmer is a common stop for travelers to Rajasthan and for good reason. Surrounded by desert, the landscape is unique. Famous for Camel Safaris. Lovely old town , with many great guesthouses .

Beautiful golden city of Rajasthan . Recommend first going to sunset view point for an overall look of the fort, before entering it.

A super experience on our first night in jaisalmer. Lal Garh fort and palaces a place to be. Great food and hospitality by the owner

Devesh Nayak

The only fort in which people still live. Pretty annoying with the narrow lanes and the vendors though. Visit the Jain Temple and the Haveli near it too.

Mark Greig

Raj Mandir is a great hotel in the fort complex with views over the town and friendly staff .

It’s a spectacular experience although most of the fort area is not accessible as well as the enormous surrounding walls...

It is better to live within the fort than to live outside the fort for a good experience

Fuerte bonito, con callejuelas llenas de tenderetes de locales y terrazas con buenas vistas a la ciudad.

Desde luego genial y una pasada visitarlo, pero no en abril/mayo. Una pena el abandono, suciedad y mal olor.
