Mandawa Tours

Mandawa town is located 23 kms. East of Fathepur. Mandawa is a small town and is famous for the 18th century fort, which has now been converted into a luxury heritage hotel - "Mukundgarh Fort Heritage Hotel". Legends of Lord Krishna are rather artistically depicted on the parapets.

There is also a fort in the center of the town. Thakur Nawal Singh built this fort and in the western side of the fort is the Goenka Havi. Adjacent to Goenka Havi is the exquisitely designed Nandalal Murmuriya Haveli which is renowned for its sculptures. The Thakurji Dedraj Tarmal, Ladiya Haveli, Neowatia, Laduram, Chokhani are all renowned for their colorul frescoes. There is also the Harlalka Baoli, the cemetry and Shiv Mandir which is conspicuous with its crystal linga.

From hordes of havelis that dot the Mandawa landscape, the most gorgeous haveli is the Gulab Bai Wadia Haveli which was built way back in 1870 in the Shekhawati style of architecture.
