Art, Craft, and Folklore Walk Through Jaisalmer
This guided walking tour of 2.5 hours begins at the Garisar Gate, a very significant spot located on the waterfront of Lake Garisar. Named after the most important source of water in Jaisalmer, this lake is close to prominent places like the Jaisalmer Folklore Museum and the ancient Garisar Lake.
Exploring the artistic treasures of the city begins with a walk through the gullies, where you get to witness different forms of art, some of which boast origins from the age of the maharajas. Artisans specialize in different arts and crafts, such as water pots and bowls, perfect eco-friendly substitutes for ceramic and plastic ones. The workspaces of skilled clay potters and metalsmiths working with gold and silver will definitely be a delightful experience. Watch artisans paint pots and clay objects in colourful traditional designs, and take home your favourite pieces as souvenirs.
You can also visit a few houses of goldsmiths and silversmiths owned by villagers and tribal folks who learned to make jewellery from their ancestors.
The trail takes you through markets filled with delicate handmade traditional wear and colourful accessories.
