Jaisalmer Fort
Jaisalmer has been dubbed the `Golden City` because of the honey colour imparted to its stone ramparts by the setting sun. No one who makes the effort to get to this remote sandy outpost leaves disappointed. Centuries ago, Jaisalmer`s strategic position on the camel train routes between India and central Asia brought it great wealth. However the rise of shipping trade and the port of Bombay saw the decline of Jaisalmer.
