Bada Bagh

    Bada Bagh in Jaisalmer is a gem that offers a peek into the past with a touch of regal grandeur. This expansive garden complex, which translates to "Big Garden," is home to an array of royal cenotaphs, or chhatris, built in honor of Jaisalmer’s rulers. As you wander through the rows of intricately carved sandstone monuments, you can almost feel the stories of the kings and queens who once reigned over this golden desert city. Each cenotaph is unique, with detailed carvings and stunning architecture that reflect the rich history and artistry of the region. The garden is also a great spot for photographers, especially during sunrise and sunset when the light casts a magical glow over the chhatris. Besides the historical allure, Bada Bagh offers sweeping views of the arid landscape, punctuated by windmills in the distance, adding a modern contrast to the ancient site. It’s a perfect blend of history, culture, and natural beauty, making it a must-visit when you’re exploring the wonders of Jaisalmer.
