It was formerly a miner town, established during the mid-19th century, but later turned into a tourist destination.
Thar Desert
The Golden City of Jaisalmer is located close to the Great Indian Thar Desert, which is known as the Sahara Desert of India. It is also one of the most populated deserts in the world.
