Today, select sections of this architectural marvel are open for public viewing, inviting you to bask in its red sandstone splendour.
Origins in opulence
The grand haveli's (mansion's) origins can be traced back to the 15th century when it was commissioned by one of Bikaner's wealthiest and most influential families—the Rampurias, after whom it is named. The construction was overseen by the skilled architect Balujee Chalva, who brought the family's vision of grandeur and opulence to life.
