Few cities can match the magnificence of this \'museum city\', located in the heart of Thar. Founded by Rao Jaisal in 1156 A.D., on the advice of local hermit Eesul. The Bhati Rajputs of Jaisalmer were a feared lot known for their valour and chavalry. They levied taxes on the caravans that travelled the ancient spice route on their way to Delhi, and went on rampage over the nearby fortresses, bringing huge wealth to the city. Not only the aristocracy, the merchants were also benefited, and their riches were displayed in their richly carved and decorated havelis.
