Jaisalmer Travel Story — Roamify Planners

Introduction

Ever had a place surprise you in the best way? That’s what Jaisalmer did to me.

I’ve traveled across Rajasthan quite a bit—partly for work, partly because I’m in love with its culture. But when I visited Jaisalmer, something clicked. There’s a kind of charm in this “Golden City” that’s hard to explain in words. The golden sandstone, the endless sand dunes, the people, the silence of the desert at night-it all stays with you long after you’ve left.

If you're thinking of heading to Rajasthan, let me take you through the journey that made me fall in love with Jaisalmer.

Why I Fell in Love with Jaisalmer

• Jaisalmer Fort:
  Honestly, I’ve seen many forts, but this one feels different. It's alive. People still live inside! I spent hours wandering the narrow lanes, sipping chai from a small stall while watching the sun paint everything gold.

• Desert Safari:
  Riding a camel across the Thar Desert was something I didn’t know I needed until I did it. At night, under the stars with folk songs playing by the fire—I felt peaceful in a way that’s rare these days.

• The Havelis:
  These ancient homes—especially Patwon Ki Haveli—left me speechless. Every wall and balcony tells a story. I remember just standing there, imagining what life must’ve been like for the people who lived there centuries ago.

• Desert Festival:
  By pure luck, I was there during the Jaisalmer Desert Festival. Think vibrant colors, dancers balancing pots on their heads, and music echoing through the streets. It felt like the entire city was dancing.

• Local Food:
  I still crave the dal baati churma I had at a small dhaba near the fort. And the gatte ki sabzi—oh, that hit the spot after a long day of exploring. Local food here has this earthy, comforting taste that stays with you.

5 Things You Just Have to Do in Jaisalmer

1. Get Lost in the Fort:
   Seriously. Don’t rush. Wander aimlessly, talk to locals, buy a handmade souvenir or two, and soak in the history.

2. Desert Safari & Camp Night:
   Go for the camel ride, but stay for the night! Watching the sunset over the dunes and then stargazing from your camp bed is pure magic.

3. Visit Kuldhara Village:
   It gave me goosebumps. It’s abandoned, yes, but there’s a strange beauty to the silence there. The legends only make it more intriguing.

4. Gadisar Lake at Sunset:
   I didn’t expect to enjoy this as much as I did. The boat ride was peaceful, and the reflections of the city in the water were just… perfect.

5. Shop at Local Bazaars:
   I picked up some beautiful embroidered pieces and leather diaries. Plus, bargaining is half the fun—just smile and enjoy the game!
