Sam

Jaisalmer, Rajasthan, India

Sam is a small town and tehsil in the Jaisalmer district of Rajasthan, located about 42–45 km west of Jaisalmer city in the heart of the Thar Desert. It is best known for the Sam Sand Dunes, a scenic stretch of golden desert that has become one of Rajasthani tourism’s classic experiences. Visitors commonly come here for camel safaris, jeep and ATV rides across the dunes, watching dramatic sunsets, staying overnight in desert camps, and enjoying Rajasthani folk music and dance around bonfires. Beyond its role as a desert‑tourism base, Sam is also a local administrative center and village community with a modest population and rural economy, making it a quiet, small‑town gateway to the wider Jaisalmer‑area desert landscape.
