Khimsar

Khimsar is a small village situated around 92 km on the highway from Jodhpur to Bikaner in the northern Indian state of Rajasthan. The village of Khimsar provides an excellent starting point to explore the district of Nagaur, which lies midway between Jodhpur and Bikaner. There are good road connections from Khimsar to other important tourist destinations in the region including Jodhpur, Bikaner, and Nagaur.

Amidst extensive sand dunes stretching over a large area of land, the construction of the fort at Khimsar began in 1523 by Rao Karamsji, the 8th son of the founder of Jodhpur Rao Jodha.
