Mahavir Prasad Goenka Haveli

TIME : 2016/2/17 13:10:50

On the same road as the Geori Shankar Haveli is the 1885 Mahavir Prasad Goenka Haveli, considered by some to have some of the best paintings in Shekhawati. The rooms on the 1st floor are most dazzling: stepping into one is like entering a jewellery box – it glimmers with mirrorwork, colour and gold. One of the rooms shows elaborate Krishna illustrations. Unfortunately, the haveli is often locked, though you can usually enter the first courtyard.
