Jaisalmer Fort Sonar Qila

Jaisalmer Fort, also known as Sonar Qila, is the iconic golden sandstone fort of Jaisalmer and one of the city's most important heritage attractions. Built in 1156, the fort remains a living historic settlement with temples, palaces, narrow lanes, shops and traditional architecture. From Smiley Green Resort near Sam Sand Dunes and Sheesh Mahal Desert Camp, the fort works well as part of a full-day city sightseeing itinerary. Allow sufficient time to explore the fort area and nearby heritage streets.
