Shekhawati's
entire region is known for its exquisite
frescoes and that’s why it’s popul
arly called the "open art gallery".Thelandscape
here is totally exposed - flat and colourless,
which makes it more interesting. The city is dominated
by the forts of Mandawa and Mukundgarh as a few
interesting havelis and sprawling forts now have
been converted into a heritage hotel.
The Piramal Haveli
in Bazar, Shekhavati, has traditional courtyards
enclosed by colonial pillared corridors. Frescoes
of flying angels and gods in motor cars adorn
the walls. |
