Beside arch-fronted Gangaur Ghat, this gracious 18th-century haveli (traditional, ornately decorated residence) was built by a Mewar prime minister in the 18th century (02942-482322; entry ₹150, camera ₹60). Now restored, this maze of a residence is jammed with kitchen implements, traditional board games, puppets, wedding dioramas, weaponry and household paraphernalia.
Look out for the home temple, the collection of moody Pichhwai paintings and the world’s biggest turban, measuring 150m when unraveled. The front courtyard is the setting for performances of Rajasthani folk dances by the Dharohar dance group every evening.
The haveli also houses a gallery featuring a fascinating collection of period photos of Udaipur and a bizarre collection of world-famous monuments carved out of polystyrene.
