Khuri Sand Dunes




Khuri Sand Dunes and Sam Sand Dunes are the two exotic places in Jaisalmer that attract tourists. It is exhilarating to look at the vast homogeneous expanse of golden sand changing colors with the aid of the wind, the setting sun in the backdrop and the eyes meeting the horizon; probably it is the most romantic, breathtaking scene. The curves and the gentle mounds created by the winds is a delightful sight and a ride over them on a camel safari is definitely enjoyable. The icing is of course a campfire in the midst of the dunes with folk songs and dances being performed.

Khuri Sand Dunes is one of the spectacular sand dunes of Rajasthan that is about 40 kms. in the south west of Jaisalmer. Khuri is a small village with thatched huts and retains a unique charm of the desert life. An ideal desert village where tourists flock to watch the sands change their magical colors when the winds blow. You can explore the khuri sand dunes on a camel back and watch the simmering sands with changing contours. The setting sun creates shadows and casts a red hue on the entire desert area, posing as a photographer’s delight. It is a photographer’s paradise to catch the magical change of colors. It is a panoramic sight to watch the wind strokes ruffling dunes into an enchanting mirage.

The low thatched roofs of mud houses, painted with white lime and adorned with figures of animals and birds gives a glimpse of the Khuri folk art. The camels, the narrow lanes and the buzzing local bazaars selling ethnic artifacts cast an Arabian nights atmosphere.

A night amidst the dunes an exotic experience, the campfire, the delicious cuisines of Rajasthan and the performances of the Kalbeliya dancers will mesmerize you. The grandeur of the majestic Khuri Sand Dunes stands out in the exotic excursion of the desert city Jaisalmer.
