How to reach: Take a camel safari or any powerful SUV

Attractions: Camel safari, Mud houses and Desert cultural

Khuri & Sam sand dunes are slowly picking up in the must visit charts of tourists. If you find Sam sand dunes a bit crowded then you can very well opt for Khuri sand dunes. Situated just 45 K.M. off the town, Khuri is a must visit for tourists seeking solitude in the Thar desert of Jaisalmer. It is a peaceful place with houses of mud and straw decorated like the patterns of Complete Desert Style.

The Khuri sand dunes offer you a memorable experience in the land of the Royal Rajputs. Enjoy the ride on camel back and let the place itself take you to its mesmerizing heights of dancing Dunes. Get closer to the local way of living with a close view of thatched straw roofs, camels, narrow streets and the local bazaar. At the night, organize a campfire with the fellow tourists (if any) and listen to the songs of 'Kalbeliyas', like " Kesriya Balam Awo Ni Padharo Mhare Desh"

We can also try Rajasthani Multi cuisine for a change and just keep looking on sand dunes as it changes its hue during different parts of day. And say thanks to the sun as it sets behind the crimson red sand dunes and leave us to be entertained with Folk-Lores.

Located 7 K.M. west of Jaisalmer, this is very pleasant, but rather neglected, small old garden and tank. It belongs to the Royal family of Jaisalmer and was originally built as a cool summer retreat. The main attraction of this place is a Shiva temple, which is said to be constructed out of large blocks of sandstones.

Maharawal Moolraj II built the Moolsagar in 1815 AD. You will find numerous wells, the Moolsagar Garden and a splendid Raj Mahal built on its premises. Maharawal Moolsagar was known for his patronage to art and artisans and that becomes pretty evident when you come across some great murals on the palace walls. Therefore his patronage to the art and architecture was resonated among his nobles and subjects. It was mainly due to his efforts that so many lovely palaces and structures were built in that period which was influenced by both the Mughal and Rajput schools of art.
