Jaisalmer sightseeing offers you perhaps the most amazing experience that you can receive throughout the whole life. Here we are giving you a brief introduction about Jaisalmer sightseeing:
Nathmalji ki Haveli: This haveli or building was constructed in late 19th century and remains famous among the tourists because of its intricate architecture and an excellent display of sheer craftsmanship. The left and right wings of the mansion are not indistinguishable but very harmoniously and balanced in design. The interior walls still make the tourists mesmerized because of its ornamental and splendid miniature paintings.
Jaisalmer Fort: The Jaisalmer Fort is a magnificent piece of architecture in the contemporary times. Once you get inside that place you will see that its consists a whole township inside its premises. The township is full of architectural marvels which consists of a palace complex, the mansions of rich Jain merchants carved with an incredibly light touch and Hindu temples.
The whole scenario within the premises of the fort and the temples cannot be missed. Jaisalmer is amazing for the experiment it brings alive of a medieval township caught in a definite period of time. Its incredible sculptors of this time were Muslim artisans who were induced, on their journeys to the patrons in other parts of India, to stay. The result is an architectural purity that, because of Jaisalmer's incredible isolation, is not seen elsewhere.
