Rajasthan to host Wagah-Attari border-like show in new tourist complex at Longewala border in Jaisalmer

This new tourism circuit will allow tourists a peek into the unique culture of the people living along the border as well as witness the hard work put in by the Indian security personnel. The tourism circuit pays an ode to the courage shown by the Indian army forces during the 1971 war at the Longewala border.

Called the Tanot Mata Tourist Complex, it will have Tanot Mata temple, Kishangarh Fort, Longewala war memorial, and scenic villages amid the vast desert terrain as its major attractions. The temple, which is visited by over 3,000 devotees every day, is now being developed into a temple complex with facilities like an amphitheatre, children’s Activity Area, and cafeteria, along with other public conveniences. This will make up for the erstwhile limited facilities that were available to the tourists in the area.

The Bawliyanwala border, which tourists could only visit after seeking permission from District Administration, will now be more easily accessible as tourists will be able to witness the retreat ceremony at the border. Other tourist activities will include a BSF documentary, weapon display, and photo gallery at Ops Base in Tanot.
