Profile:
Alsisar Haveli lies tucked away in the heart of pink city, Jaipur.
It brings back to life the grandeur of the old days and is a memorable
regal Rajasthani experience for the guests. Refurbished in 1982,
the Haveli incorporates the finesse of traditional Rajput architecture
and a site to behold. The large elevated platform that dominates
the central area of the ground floor and once used for get-togethers
by the gents of the house is now open to guests who can witness
puppet shows and folk dances while enjoying their snacks or drinks.
The spacious lobby which opens into the chowk (inner courtyard),
was a century ago used by the ladies of the house and is now open
to guests for a tête-à-tête.
