 Manvar
is a desert resort situated mid-way between
Jaisalmer and Jodhpur (Rajasthan, India). It
is a medieval city catapulted through a time
warp into the 21st century. There is a quiet,
unhurried grace about this desert settlement
and its people and a sense of kinship that can
be traced to Bapji, otherwise known as Gaj
Singh, who in another time would have been
maharaja.
Manvar Resort is located
right in the heart of the Great Indian Thar
Desert. It lies between the cities of
Jodhpur,Jaisalmer & Bikaner. Its an
unprecedented tourist destination offering a
rare opportunity to enjoy Rajasthan’s desert
life, culture, wildlife & beauty.
The
Resort is operational throughout the year.
