Mool Sagar

Location

Mool Sagar, set up by Maharawal Mool Raj in 1780, is an eye pleasing picnic spot in Jaisalmer. The place is credited with a cute, compact but attractive palace, a breathtaking garden with varieties of blooming plants and a spectacular reservoir. A medieval period Shiva temple assumed to be carved out of a pair of sandstones is a popular religious attraction here.

The place was a summer retreat for the Royal family members. There are three important Jain temples in this palace. These temples are dedicated to the Jain Tirthankaras known as Rishabadev, Parsavnath and Sambhavnath. The place offers rich lush green environment in the desert.
