Desert Tourism in Rajasthan attract tourists from a long time. But the extreme weather conditions and difficulties to travel in those areas affect travellers somehow. To promote the tourism in broad way, Rajasthan Tourism Department had sent a proposal to the Government to develop Shri Tanot Complex in Jaisalmer. The motive behind this is to promote border tourism and infrastructure development in the region. The tales of war heroes and cultural heritage of forts and havelis of Jaisalmer creates a curiosity among visitors. As per the new development, the latest initiatives will offer more safe and convenient access to reach and explore the location.
The initiative will help common people to understand the difficult life of people and security persons living in the border areas. The increased movement of tourists will help villagers to earn a sustainable income. Tanot Village will get empowered with interpretation centre, amphitheatre, cafeteria, eco-friendly zone, strong surveillance system, solar based street lighting and other facilities. BSF will take care of proper maintenance, execution of exhibitions for tourists.
Two famous attractions of Jaisalmer near the border area already attracts tons of visitors every day:
• Tanot Mata Temple
• Longewala- Display of bravery of the Indian Armed Forces
As per reports, new tourism activities will include Weapon Display, Inspiring Documentary films display and photo galley exbhibition.
So, Let’s wait for the new approach of border tourism and new ways to explore Jaisalmer-the Golden City.
