Jagannath Singhania Haveli

Rajasthan


West from the Le Prince Haveli is the Jagannath Singhania Haveli, dating from 1855. It has a fantastic ornately painted interior, but is often locked. There are some interesting paintings on its facade, including that of Krishna and Radha framed by four elephants, and, above this, some British men with guns.
