Shekhawati


This is Nadine le Prince haveli in Fatehpur, Shekhawati Region of Rajasthan.  This French lady has restored this 200years old haveli.  It is magnificently decorated in a traditional Indian style. 

Again the Nadin le Prince Haveli.



The restructured railings and forescos in the haveli


This is a foresco of a haveli in Jhunjhunu.  It is in its original shape.  The colours and the style is entirely different. 


Most of the ceilings of these havelis are adorned with Radha Krishna.

  2. Superb pics Surin. Lots of people have been to Mandu, Shekhawati and Kasauli, but it took you to SEE them. Congrats.

    In fact, I was resenting your not posting your pics on facebook. Can't complain now.
