Salim Singh Ki Haveli, Jaisalmer (Rajasthan)

Udaipur has lakes, Jaipur has forts, and Jaisalmer has havelis to be proud of. The narrow lanes of Old Jaisalmer lead to magnificent havelis. If the breathtaking Jaisalmer Fort attracts travelers to the city, it is the charm of havelis in Jaisalmer that keeps them here.

History of Salim Singh Ki Haveli

Built in 1815, Salim Singh Ki Haveli in Jaisalmer was built by its namesake. Salim Singh Mehta was the prime minister of Jaisalmer kingdom. This beautiful structure served as the home of the most powerful family, the Mehtas. Unlike most royal structures and forts in Rajasthan, this haveli was not created with cement and mortar but the stones were connected with the help of strong iron rods. Famous for its distinctive architecture, the haveli features 38 gracefully carved balconies.

Architecture of Salim Singh Ki Haveli

Constructed using red sandstone, the design of Salim Singh Ki Haveli is said to be inspired from a peacock’s dancing pose. The structure is narrow for the first floors and then, its top floor spreads out into arched balconies topped by pale-blue cupolas. Its peacock-shaped roof is a beautiful sight to behold under the desert skies of Jaisalmer. Several rooms, splendid murals, and frescoes add to the beauty of haveli. The entrance is guarded by elaborate elephants which are a symbol of the heritage of Rajasthan.

Attractions of Salim Singh Ki Haveli

The architecture, carvings, and the excellent craftsmanship of the haveli is a major attraction that lures the tourists to visit this haveli. The beautiful stone carvings, latticed murals, and bracketed walls make Salim Singh ki Haveli attractive and add a royal touch to it. There is also a cupola roof which is blue in color that adds extra charm to the haveli. The haveli depicts Indian art and architecture in a great way.

Arjun's 6 days trip to Jaisalmer

I was having a long dream of going on a solo trip and my planning brought me to Travel Triangle which took me to BacktoBack Holidays. I had booked a customized solo trip to Rajasthan and I would like to take this moment to describe the best experience I had with them. It was a pleasure to book through BacktoBack Holidays and I wholeheartedly thank Preethi Ji for having created this wonderful itinerary for me, as she really catered for all the needs of mine and created a fantastic plan for me to adhere all the places I had requested to. I really am overwhelmed with the hospitality and the kind gesture bestowed by Preethi Everything was top notch, the driver Jeethu who was the best in class and was always on time with whom I felt I wasn't on a solo trip at all. All the rooms were very well maintained and hygienic. Especially the Kuchaman Haveli in Jodhpur gave an ecstatic feel about staying in an ancient palace. The complimentary breakfast offered by all the hotels were also very tasty. The itinerary was so perfectly balanced that I was able to make the best out of it. Cheers to one extremely memorable trip for having created it so well! I totally recommend Back2back Holidays and especially Preethi Ji if you are looking for having the best experience and a memorable trip to undertake! Thank you Back2back Holidays And Thank you very much Preethi ji!
