This is a unique 16th century fort that has centuries of history written on its walls and hallowed ramparts. Perched right across the great Thar Desert, this is an old-style fortress haveli that has lawns that go on and on, stunning sights and rooms that will leave you awestruck. In fact, the 20th generation of rulers still reside within the fort. The Khimsar Village nestled in the dunes are enough to make us get up and book that desert safari. This is slightly cut off from civilisation, but we suggest you enjoy the remoteness and the cultural extravaganza that the place is.
