Mukundgarh

Mukundgarh is one of several villages in the Shekhawati region, once known for the merchant families who left for larger cities in search of business, leaving many settlements sparsely populated. These merchants rarely forgot their hometowns, however, and sent back substantial wealth to build ornately painted havelis (mansions), along with schools and colleges. Many of these havelis still stand today, their frescoed walls retaining much of their original charm.
