Nathmal Ji ki haveli, Jaisalmer, Rajasthan India

Nathmalji-ki-Haveli was constructed by the two brothers, Hathi and Lulu who were famous for their unique architectural creativity. One of the notable Jaisalmer attractions, Nathmalji-ki-Haveli primarily served as the residence of Diwan Mohata Nathmal who was the Prime Minister of the place during that period.

Nathmalji-ki-Haveli of Jaisalmer in Rajasthan bears relics to the rich architectural splendor of the ancient times. A unique feature of the marvelous architectural monument of Nathmalji-ki-Haveli is the giant structure of two elephants of yellow sand stone at the main entrance of the beautiful edifice. The walls and ceilings of the splendid monument are decorated with exquisite paintings and fine carvings that adds to the beauty of the historical structure.

Thus the architecture present in this haveli is quite different from the one popular in other parts of Jaisalmer. The workmanship of Jaisalmer havelis is an amalgam of both Rajput architecture as well as Islamic art that was imported via the traders' caravan through the desert.
