A nice place to see the sunset while setting among the cenotaphs of Maharajas. The beauty of the place is spoiled by the presence of hundreds of wind turbines around the area.

So hiring a guide at Bada Bagh is pointless. If you are in Jaisalmer, visit this place during sunset.

With five star luxury fort and palace hotels mushrooming across the state of Rajasthan, not many young Rajput men gave thought to preserving the real way of life in the desert and sharing it with those who care to travel and see behind the veil of make believe. Moti Singh Rathore, a direct descendant of the Thakurs of Shergarh thought of doing this. To him the location was ideal - an area far, far away from the sounds and sights of urban chaos and closer to the captivating quietude of rural Rajasthan. He dreamed of creating an experience in the area that was not quite the regular heritage hotel one often finds in Rajasthan today.Manvar is an ideal base to explore Indian desert life, culture, wildlife and landscape of breathtaking beauty. It offers a stark and contrasting desert experience. On one hand is the Manvar Desert Resort, built in traditional desert village style with eco-friendly innovations. On the other hand, and even more precious in today’s commercialized world – lies Manvar Camp a tented camp seven kilometers from the resort in the midst of the Thar desert, a rare sanctuary of pristine beauty, tranquility and solitude.What better way to spend a day than on camel back, gazing at groups of frisky chinkara - shy Indian gazelle - as they make their way across the silent sands, see herds of cattle and sheep roaming around, sometimes grazing, sometimes wandering, as if under the watchful eye of a greater shepherd in a cloud-less sky. Watch village children ambling off to school, while their mothers rustle up their afternoon meal on a ‘Chullah’ (typical village kitchen fireplace made of clay) fired by dung as bio-fuel. And as the sun takes a bow behind the dunes, something inside tells you that this is your sanctuary… and theirs.

A highlight of the Manvar desert experience - an adventurous drive in rugged four wheel jeeps where one will scramble and climb over dunes and higher crests. As small convoy vehicles track up and down the dunes, invariably getting stuck, part of the fun is ‘digging out’ and enjoying the soft sand under your feet before you are back in the car and off again.Desert drives wind through the dunes and 'streets', (the valleys between dunes). A gentle drive (about an hour and a half) through the terrain is a great way to cover the distances needed to find the free-roaming wildlife herds. The delicate desert gazelles wander freely across the plains and dunes, often dipping to drink within this conservation-led sanctuary resort - come upon them in the dunes or pick them out where they are well-camouflaged amongst trees and shrubs. Stop for photo opportunities, pointing out animals and tracks, or focusing on specific interests you may have, as well as pointing out some of the many bird species or lucky encounters with rarer inhabitants.

It is not a single Haveli but a group of five different Havelis, each with its unique architecture and heritage. Also known as the Jaisalmer Patwa ki haveli, the golden color of these beautiful Havelis mimics the beautiful golden color of Rajasthani sand.History of Patwon ki Haveli:The Havelis are located in a narrow lane hence it is better to walk instead of taking a vehicle there. These Havelis were built by a wealthy trader called Gumanchand Patwa in 1805. It is believed that he has belonged to a very rich family as they dealt in gold and silver threads which were used in decorating precious clothes of that era.The Havelis are also known as mansions of brocade merchants for the same reason. Some locals thought argue that the Patwas made their money through opium smuggling and money lending. Gumanchand Patwa built these Havelis over 60 years. But looking at the structure, one will be compelled to think that every single year and every single piece of stone put in these buildings intensifies the magnificence of these beautiful Havelis.Currently, the Havelis are used by the government of India. The office of the Archaeological Survey of India and the Rajasthan state arts and craft department is situated in these Havelis. The most beautiful Haveli in all of these is the Kothari Patwa which is also the most popular one.The individuality of each Haveli is depicted through different styles of mirror work and paintings on their arches and gateways. Colorful murals adorn the walls of these mansions. Such is the brightness of the color that you are bound to feel mesmerized seeing the beauty of these murals.Apart from the walls these murals also decorate the Jharokhas, balconies and the entrance gates of each mansion. Such beauty is rare to be found even in Rajasthan. The famous Rajasthani artwork is shown in its full glory in these mansions. If your art buds are still not satisfied, then there is a museum which has on display the numerous paintings, sculptures, and artifacts which could be used as eye soothers.Feel the luxury and royalty of the Patwas in this museum, I am sure that even the kings of Rajasthan would have envied these wealthy traders. An Important and interesting historical fact is that the Patwon Ki Haveli was only the 2nd Haveli to be ever built in Rajasthan and the first was one in Jaisalmer.The pillars and ceilings of these beautiful mansions contain intricate carvings that depict the craftsmanship of artisans of that bygone era. Such is the detail of sculpture that you can identify the figures even after 200 years, isn't it amazing. The artisans have expressed themselves even on the archways as well as main gates, which are filled with these amazing specimens of art.Architecture students arrange special visits to the Patwon Ki Haveli to study the art.&nbsp; Architects of these mansions kept the special provisions to ensure that the residents do not feel the infamous Rajasthani heat. These beautiful mansions contain over 60 balconies, from where the courtyard is clearly visible.Inclusion :Entry Ticket&nbsp;Exclusion : No Meals No Transfers Guide Charges Extra Still / Video Camera ChargesImportant Notes : The rates may vary from supplier to supplier.

The brothers started working on the opposite sides of the building which lead to a similar but non identical left and right side. The extraordinary exteriors dripping with carvings and the virtuoso work of the Haveli (similar on either side but not identical) with two elephants made of limestone guarding the entrance is the sight that every visitor is privileged to see.&nbsp; Apart from its extraordinary outer carvings, this haveli is known for its beautiful interiors equipped with modern facilities and filled with paintings. An amalgamation of Rajputana architecture, Nathmal Ki Haveli is well justified as being one of the most beautiful havelis in Jaisalmer. In addition to the detailed architecture, facades, latticed windows, intricate and others, Nathmal Ji Ki Haveli also boasts on two life-sized elephants on its main entrance. Though it was built centuries ago, then too Nathmal Ji Ki Haveli is decked with an array of modern amenities and facilities.As the name suggests, the architecture and carvings that adorn the fort of Jaisalmer are mostly built out of yellow sandstone. Thus when the sun rays fall on these structures, they radiate like gold. Apart from the extraordinary paintings using 1.5kg of gold leaf and carvings on walls, this confluence of the Islamic and Rajput style of architecture has an exciting story. It is said that the two architects, Hathi and Lulu started building two different facets of the building. Since there were no instruments those days to keep track of the continuity, the building came up in an irregular shape. Surprisingly, the paintings on the interior are depictions of modern amenities like cars and fans which the two architects had painted from the descriptions given to them by people who have seen it despite having never seen it themselves in real life. Interesting ? Well, see it for yourself.Inclusion : Entry Free&nbsp;Exclusion : No Meals No Transfers Guide Charges Extra&nbsp;Important Notes : The rates may vary from supplier to supplier.
