In 1876, the Prince of Wales visited Jaipur and the entire Jaipur city was painted in pink the symbolic colors of hospitality to welcome him.

Over time, a township grew around the fort and soon attracted a large community of traders, who then settled down at Mandawa. Mandawa is also famous for its beautiful Havelis. The realm of lovely Havelis, harking back to the years, epitomizes the beauty of Mandawa. The land is laced with innumerable grand mansions that are guaranteed to capture one’s imagination. It is a haven for a true connoisseur of art and architecture. Exquisitely embellished Havelis mushroomed during the eighteenth century and the former half of the twentieth. Mythology and fauna lie at the very core of this wonderful art. Tales narrating the valor of Lord Rama and the miracles of Lord Krishna unfold on a journey of these marvelous mansions.
