Built in 1156, Jaisalmer thrived on the caravans that crossed India's Thar Desert in ancient times.

Thank you, Kimi. Jaisalmer is remote but well worth the effort of getting there.Dianna Hauf July 28, 2007 0
Oh...My...Word! First of all, love your deep blue sky, secondly, this desert scene is spectacular! The 'city'looks so 'intimadating' even from a distance! National Geographic would be so proud.... :) #4569677Steve M. Harrington July 28, 2007 0
Thanks so much, Dianna. The city is not at all intimidating. It is filled with incredible buildings that seem lace-like in their detailed carvings, and the people are friendly. One problem: this shot was taken in May when temperatures regularly hit 115 degrees. :)Colette M. Metcalf July 28, 2007 0
What a beautiful capture!! #4569800Dianna Hauf July 28, 2007 0
Ok, "intimidating", bad choice of wording. It is just sooooo huge, maybe 'fortress' or 'citadel'...since you teach 'communications', help me!!! I am at a loss for the right word description! I must be extra tired tonight as I 'babble'! No matter, it is a striking image! :):) #4569893Steve M. Harrington July 28, 2007 0
Thanks very much, Colette.Dianna, if you are planning on attacking it, "intimidating" would be an excellent word. If you are visiting, then "magical" is a good choice. :)
