About Jaisalmer
According to a local quatrain, "remote, isolated, unique Jaisalmer appears out of a wasteland of rock and sand like some surrealist dream of an
inspired visionary."
The foundation of the fort was laid in 1156 on Trikuta hill by the
Bhatti chief Jaisal. The fort, also called Sonar Kila-a Golden Fort, made of yellow
sandstone, seems to ignite into a golden flame when scorched by the desert sun.
Numerous bastions of upto 325 ft. are made accessible through gates-Ganesh Pol, Akshya Pol Suraj Pol and Hawa Pol. the walls of the fort are built in dry masonry.
The 19th century Badal Mahal is home to the current royal descendant. There is a cross cultural merging of Rajput and Islamic
building styles.
There are the Rana Mahal, Gaj Vilas and Moth Mahal which have balconies and cupolas with finely executed carving and stone tracery.
The pillared galleries, carved balconies create an intricate and wonderful setting. The narrow lanes and low but simply-designed houses in the fort are also interesting.
The houses of rich merchants and nobles have exquisitely cared facades and projecting balconies. The large square in the fort, Manik Chowk, once used to by a big grain market.
The fort of pokaran is on the road to Jodhpur from Jaislamer
