Rajasthan - Jaisalmer 

Jaisalmer is a major tourist spot located in the northwestern state of Rajasthan in India. It is called the 'golden city' due to its bounteous golden dunes flowing in the Thar Desert.

Climb on to the camel saddle and make your way through this desert or camp under the night sky in this golden land for an unforgettable experience.
