Introducing Khuri
Khuri is a small village 40km southwest of Jaisalmer – an hour and a world away from the fort’s swarming trade. Khuri has its own desert sand dunes, and remains a peaceful place (apart from during holiday periods, as it’s popular with Indian holidaymakers), with houses of mud and straw decorated like the patterns on Persian carpets. There are plenty of camps of mud huts, and camel drivers eager to take you on the dunes, but no shop-lined streets or pancake restaurants. Once the excitement of sunset is over, you have desert solitude and the brilliant star-studded sky at night to look forward to.
