Vyas Chhatri

Vyas Chhatri is one of the most beautiful examples of Rajasthani architecture, located in Bada Bagh in Jaisalmer. This old Brahmin graveyard is devoted to Ved Vyaas, the sage who wrote the Mahabharata epic, and is full of local copies of cenotaphs. This place, which is surrounded by cenotaphs, is more commonly known as Jaisalmer's sunset spot. Thousands of people flock to the Vyas Chhatri every evening to see the stunning desert sunset. Beautiful golden sandstone chhatris with exquisite and delicate carvings can be found all over this region. Vyas Chhatri is a popular tourist destination that provides a bird's eye view of Jaisalmer, the fort, and even the surrounding areas. At Vyas Chhatri, visitors can also see a host of locals playing Rajasthani tunes on the algoza, a double fluted guitar, providing a sensory overload.
