It is enveloped within numerous legends that are sure to instil awe and curiosity towards its sacred power and purity. The heritage site is preserved and maintained by the Border Security Force (BSF) of India since the Indo-Pakistan war in 1971.
Localities have immense faith on the temple’s austerity and pay regular visit to the Tanot Mata. She is believed to be an apparition of the Hinglaj Mata Goddess. Tanot is in close proximity with Longewala, a critical India-Pakistan border that forbids access to any individual without permission of Indian Government authorities. Due to its topography, it can harness large quantities of wind energy, thus visitors can see the rows of windmill energy power plants established here. There is a museum built adjacent to the temple that displays certain historic artefacts collected from the war period. This is a must visit place for those who wish to pay their homage to the Indian Army and the temple that is considered holy by the Indian heroes of defence and harmony.
History :-
It is said that during the Indo-Pakistani War of 1965, Pakistani Army dropped over 3000 bombs targeting the temple but not even one exploded! The Pakistani Tank regiment was stupefied and kept shelling but not one bomb exploded. After the war the Pakistani General actually asked his counterpart in India about this incident and on knowing the story of the power of the temple that apparently protected the area he asked to see this place. This request was granted and the Pakistani General actually went to the temple and paid his respects and acknowledged the supernatural happening. After the war the temple management was handed over to Border Security Force of India on their request and to date the temple is maintained and manned by the BSF soldiers.
After paying your respects to the Goddess, you can take a round of the museum established in the same vicinity. It holds a public exhibition of the arms and ammunitions used during the Indo-Pakistan wars of 1965 and 1971. They hold great significance, as the bombs used to attack the natives of Tanot village never diffused. The place is one of the best place to explore in the Thar Desert in Rajasthan. This temple was shown in the film Border. The best time to visit is November – January, when the temperature is not likely to be extremely high. Taxis can be hired from Jaisalmer After completing this pilgrimage trip, you can plan a camel safari in the Thar Desert or plan a sightseeing trip of the majestic forts of Jaisalmer.
Longewala  Border :-
Longewala is a border town in Thar desert near Jaisalmer, Rajasthan. The army of Lt. Kuldip Singh was commanding this small post because on the other side Pakistani forces were awaiting an opportunity to attack and takeover Jaisalmer. At the night of 4th December 1971, the Indian army observed noises across the border that suggested a heavy platoon approach. As it was dark, the moon was the only source of light that lit the scene.
The Battle
When sources confirmed that Pakistan indeed was approaching, Lt. Kuldeep Singh contacted the headquarters and asked for reinforcements. He was informed that it would take six hours for backup to be available and was advised to retreat to a nearby town, Ramgarh. But Kuldeep Singh and his men held ground fearlessly and decided to fight.  After midnight Pakistan surfaced near Longewala and opened fire with artillery guns. As the 45 heavily equipped tanks of Pakistan approached the border, Indian defences laid a hasty anti-tank minefield. Indians were at the advantage of holding the higher ground; Pakistani tanks struggled to move upward and blasted themselves in doing so. This gave an opportunity to Indian soldiers to spot and attack the enemy, a fire lit the otherwise dark battlefield. Indian defence used a smoke screen to confuse the Pakistani soldiers and stalled the battle till reinforcements arrived.
Who won the battle?
India, though outnumbered, applied clever strategies to maneuver its way through the fight. After a long battle, Indian Air force was able to send backup in the morning. Now, the opposition’s battalion was an easy target as they were on the ground and didn’t have an Airforce to help them out. After getting 22 tanks blasted with rockets, Pakistani army was forced to withdraw.
Aftermath of the battle
120 soldiers against 2000, sounds daunting. But what’s surprising is that India only lost 2 soldiers and 1 tank while Pakistan lost 200 soldiers and 36 tanks, in the battle. Kuldeep Singh was applauded for his strategic win and was conferred with the Mahavir Chakra for showing great courage.
Longewala hosted a fray that speaks of sheer fearlessness and heroism of Indian soldiers. It’s a perfect example of how a fight can be smoothly won if you club your fires with a little strategy. The valor displayed by Kuldeep Singh and his men is now dictated to the army, to build their mettle and to inspirit them with enthusiasm. This battle was one of a kind and deservingly fixed a spot in Indian history.
Kuldhara village – Haunted Village Sam Road jaisalmer
Kuldhara Village, located within 20 kilometres from the Golden City  Jaisalmer is not always a known name among the tourists, but a little research will show how this is one of the most interesting and intriguing attraction sites that you should absolutely include in your itinerary. The village, rich with its fair share of legends and myths, is said to be a spooky and haunted village. The abandoned and eerily beautiful appearance of it, standing solitary amidst the vast stretches of desert, lives up to its reputation. There have been stories of ghostly and paranormal activities in and around the village, but like always no one could provide any solid proof of it. Nevertheless, Kuldhara village is an exciting place to visit just for its architectural beauty and the vibe of history.
Once you visit the place, the sheer blankness of the village so massive, yet so eerily silent and abandoned with just the houses standing like skeletal corpses of the past engulfs you entirely. Adds to that the legend how the residents of the entire area left the place overnight altogether to save their honors and lives from the hands of the tyrannical minister who ruled over the place, and you have got the perfect setting for a bestselling horror story.
There is nothing to do as such, but the experience itself makes up for all of it. The government with the help of some private construction companies are setting up cafes, restaurants and even lodges for the night stay to turn the place into a full-fledged tourist place. The constructions are undergoing as of December 2017 and once finished, Rajasthan hopes to attract more people to visit and experience the great beauty amidst the barrenness.
Bada Bagh jaisalmer :-
At a distance of 8 km from Jaisalmer Railway Station and 7 km from Jaisalmer Fort, Bada Bagh or Bara Bagh is a historical garden located on Ramgarh road and halfway between Jaisalmer and Lodurva in Rajasthan.
Bada Bagh means big garden. It is a garden of cenotaphs or chhatris of the royal family of Jaisalmer. A descendant of Maharawal Jaisal Singh, Jait Singh II, commissioned a dam to create a water tank in the 16th century AD. This made the desert green in this area. After his death, Bada Bagh was fully developed by his son Lunakaran.
The garden stands at the foot of a hill and several chhatris or cenotaphs stand in memory of the late rulers of Jaisalmer. Cenotaphs are also known as chhatris and one cenotaph is erected for each ruler. The cenotaph of Maharawal Jait Singh is the oldest of all. Many cenotaphs were built by subsequent rulers for the Bhatti royal family of Jaisalmer. This continued till the 20th century when the last one for Maharawal Jawahar Singh was left incomplete as his son who ascended the throne after him, died within one year of his ascension. This was considered to be bad luck and from then on, the tradition of cenotaphs at Bada Bagh was discontinued. 
The architecture of these chhatris is a blend of Paliwal, Mughal, and Rajput styles of architecture. Each cenotaph contains inscribed tablets with names of the King and Queen. Some of the cenotaphs have a statue of the King on a horse along with his queen standing nearby. The size of the chhatri varies according to the status of the person.
This garden also includes a tank and a dam, along with a Govardhan Stambh (pillar). The pillar was constructed for commemorating the construction of the nearby tank and dam. Locals refer to the dam as Jait Bandh, while the tank is known as Jait Sar. The Jait Bandh is a huge structure measuring over 1,200 feet in length and 350 feet in width. Both the tank and dam has been constructed using solid blocks of stone.

5 Reasons you will love Jaisalmer
I ’m going to tell you 5 reasons why you ’ll LOVE Jaisalmer, plus some Jaisalmer trip tips! I did n’t only love this desert municipality for the well-known camel safari. It’s also got a still inhabited stronghold with massive imposing walls and wreathing mazes of alleyways. Such a pleasurable place to explore and daydream.
The stronghold is literally a giant real life sandcastle. It’s magical.
It was teeming with trade to Persia, but ultimately Bombay took over, and now Jaisalmer is like an ancient municipality stuck in the yore.
The camel safari Of course! This is the number one reason because it was unthinkable and I would do it again in a wink. I've another post saved to the details, read it presently offing.
The Desert camp The Thar Desert is the world’s 18th largest desert and the biggest desert in India. It's spread across 5 commonwealths in India in the north to the west, with a adulthood of the area lying in Rajasthan, where the Thar Desert National Park is located in Jaisalmer.
Apart from forming a natural border with abutting Pakistan, the Thardesert is one of the top places to visit in Jaisalmer. Being the main part of Jaisalmer tourism are the camel safari and the Thar Desert Camp in Jaisalmer.
The Fort “ Jaisalmer Fort” The sandstone the fastness is made from took the color desert beachfront, so as the sun changed it stayed cleverly disguised and giving it the name the “ golden fastness”. Rubbernecks are allowed to stay in the fastness as well as a really decent price. There's substantial overcrowding and deteriorating plumbing.
The fastness is busy with people and full of traders as well as positive vibes! It’s a strange thing to be in a still in use fastness, that has n’t been turned into a gallery.
The Shopping Jaisalmer is known for it’s camel leather. They say they bide until the camel is dead, so no hurt is done. Some say it’s not yea camel leather at all. Lots of braided leather irons as gifts, a pocketbook, and shoes for my mommy, a couple cotton tank lids, and a leather crocodile Dundee headpiece for my kinfolk, which was a massive supernova and multiplex fresh!
Bhang Lassi Bhang is from the cannabis works and is ready and mixed in a yoghurt fruit drunk for your pleasure. This is considered a physic in multitudinous eyes, but not in India. This is part of the religious culture in India and shops are government approved.
