Sam
Sand Dunes is the Jaisalmer's nearest real Sahara like Desert.
Sam Sand Dunes,
situated 42 km from Jaisalmer, is the closest point to witness the total
sandy desert. It has a truly magnificent strech of sweeping dunes, with
little or no vegetation. It's best to be here at sunrise or sunset, and
many camel safaris spend a night at the dunes. The best way to see this
and other sights around Jaisalmer is to take a came safari. The standard
trip lasts 4 days and three nights, and offers the opportunity to explore
the area in authentic and leisurely fashion, with entertainment by folk
performers, visits to villages, and chatter from colourful guides thrown
in. Despite of the tourist hype, it is still quite a magical place, and it
is possible to frame pictures of solitary camels against lonely dunes. The
desert dung beetles are fascinating to watch.
