The welcome begins at the airport, with cold towels and soft drinks. Orange-turbaned chauffeurs whisk me half an hour down the road through the dry and dusty Indian city of Jaisalmer. A couple of camel riders appear, bearing bright flags, an escort that ushers me through a set of gates in stately procession. On the other side, the spectacle continues with a shower of rose petals, thumping drum beats, and dancers in long skirts whirling to the mesmerizing voices of manganiyar singers (a local community of Sufi musicians). I’ve arrived at Popular tourist destinations in the northwest Indian state of Jaisalmer’s beating heart is the 12th-century fort known as Sonar Kila, or "golden fort." | sujesh/Shutterstock “We have also taken care to mirror the vegetation of the desert,” Yadav elaborates. Indeed, to sweep eyes across the property is to see straggly native trees, like khejri and ker, which tend to grow well in arid lands. The hotel's plants are meant to mirror the desert's vegetation. | Photo courtesy of Suryagarh Jaisalmer To awaken in Suryagarh is an experience. I trade the blare of my alarm clock for the mellifluous notes of a local singer who performs in the main courtyard, head covered by one end of her diaphanous cotton shawl. Music is a constant motif through my stay here, with regular evening concerts by talented folk singers from around the area. This meal is my first indication that Suryagarh takes its food seriously, but certainly not the last. “One of our chefs...

Its rustic brown façade merges with the stark wilderness of the desert, and the sheer grandeur of India’s bygone royal era calls out to me. Khamaghani. Welcome to Suryagarh. The last time I was in Jaisalmer was over 8 years ago. I’m glad those memories have largely faded away, because this isn’t the dry, parched terrain I remember. The sporadic monsoon rains have painted the Thar Desert in shades of green, and sprouted oases on the parched land. I’m surprised to open the window of my cosy, colorful room, and see a semi-green desert, with windmills spinning in the distance. Also See: View from my room at Suryagarh Jaisalmer. The music of the Manganiyar desert tribe echoes through Suryagarh’s expansive courtyards. The retro in-house bar servesRajasthani delicacies and fusion tapas in earthen bowls. And a majority of its staff, though conversant in English and trained in the fine ways of the industry, are humble Rajasthani men who still uphold local traditions with much gusto.

And Suryagarh is our lens through which the magic of the Thar unfurls; a fabled world that is sparse yet holds remarkable splendour, where the frugality of its resources offers the greatest richness. This is our home, now your home, both humble and extraordinary, with its secret stories of land and tribe, a place where fantasy and reality are intertwined. Here, we do not serve we share the gifts bestowed upon us and we do it with a lightness of spirit; with play and joy because it is the only way we know. Built entirely out of the local honey coloured sandstone as a fortification against marauders in the 12th century, the origin of Jaisalmer can be traced back to the Rajput chieftain Rawal Jaisal, who set the foundations of the fort [Jaisalmer = ‘hill fort of Jaisal’], in this strategic and challenging location. From the 17th century onwards, the city prospered, initially protected against shifting sands and feudal buglers by a steep ring of giant stone ramparts as it became a coveted stronghold on the lucrative silk route leading from China across north India and onto the west. Today Jaisalmer is a lively hub, and an entry point to the Thar - the Great Indian Desert, from where one can trek across beautiful stretches of sand, go on adventurous safaris deep into the desert, or paradoxically, enjoy picnics by oases and hidden lakes surrounded by shady groves. 'I love Jaisalmer' is an alliance of local people who come together to solve systematic problems of their communitie...
