Rajasthan is one of the most welcoming states for tourists. Tourists from all over the world visit Rajasthan to enjoy the hospitality it offers. Whether it’s the grand forts like Ranthamhore and Kumbhalgarh or smooth desert sands of Jaisalmer, the colorful costumes, or the spicy dishes, Rajasthan reveals an interesting facet of India.

Mandawa is a town in Jhunjhunu district of Rajasthan, situated 190 km off Jaipur in the north. It is full of havelis, small and big, ancient and repaired. The Shekhavati region is well known for its havelis and the myriad frescoes that adorn the walls of these havelis. Also known as the "open art gallery" of Rajasthan, Mandawa is well connected with the other places in region through a good network of roads.

Rajasthani-Italianate architecture can be witnessed in the Piramal Haveli in Baggar. It is approximately 40 kilometers from main Mandawa. This is one of the famous Rajasthan heritage hotels. It is also one of the closest Shekhawati hotels to Delhi. It was built in 1928 and has an open garden and two pillared courtyards painted with colorful kitsch frescoes of flying angels, aeroplanes, and gods in motor cars. Exploring the unique characteristics of the restored Piramal Haveli is like an adventure in itself.
