Sometimes also referred to as Jahaz Mahal, due to the front facade of the building resembling the stern of a ship, this haveli is a testament to the city's rich cultural heritage.

Waste of time and money

Nothing to see here. Only one room is open, and the guide is rude. This should not even count as an attraction.

Waste of time and money
