Mandawa FortIn the heart of the Shekhawati region of Rajsthan lies the beautiful small town Mandawa, known through out the state for its forts and Havelis. Mandawa is situated in the north Indian state of Rajasthan around 190 km from Jaipur,the capital of the state. The fort town of Mandawa is well connected with the other places in region through a good network of roads.

The compact and busy little market town of Mandawa was settled and fortified in 18th century by the dominant merchant families of the region.The wealthy businessmen of the village constructed many havelis and baolis with colored painting adorning their walls. Later on, with the migration of these merchant families, their old settlements remained in total obscurity with no one to look after them. Despite the time lapse and ignorance about these visual and architectural extra vaganzas, their attraction did not fadeand today they are some of the major attractions for the tourists visiting Rajasthan.
