Around Gadisar Lake

In the middle of bone melting heat of Jaisalmer desert it is hard  to imagine a peaceful   pond with temples, shrines,ghats , trees such as Gadisar lake . This lake is built in 1400 A D by Maharwal Gadsi Singh  in the middle of desert which was the lone water resource for the city of Jaisalmer before modern water pipelines arrived. It is much easily conclude  that Jaisalmer developed in to one of the best tourist city in the world just because of these rain harvesting lakes are built by the genius Maharajas of Rajasthan.

As the gaseous sun of the afternoon transforms in to soft golden light the gadisar lake fills with full of life. While people around the city come and relax on surrounded ghats , the tourists mostly exhausted due to heat see a heaven here ! The day gets ready for a gorgeous end as the powerful sunrays turn in to warm cover for the cold breeze. Even after the sun gone the human activity continues until it gets pitch dark .

Here are some photos of the most memorable evening of my life I spent in Gadisar lake of Jaisalmer.
