Bagore-Ki Haveli
This is a very congenial
old building built right on the waterfront of Lake
Pichola at Gangori Ghat. Amir Chand Badwa, the Prime
Minister of Mewar built it in the eighteenth century.
The palace has over hundred rooms and some very
interesting display of costumes and modern art. The
glass and mirror in the interiors of the Haveli
delicate work and well preserved too. It also
preserves a fine example of Mewar Painting on the
walls of Queen's Chamber. The two peacocks made from
small pieces of colored glasses are fine examples of
glasswork. After the death Badwa the building became
the property of Mewar State. It came to be occupied by
Maharana Shakti Singh of Bagore who built the palace
of the three arches also in 1878 and it acquired its
name of Bagore-ki-haveli, the house of Bagore. After
independence the structure lay in neglect until 1986
when it housed the West Zone Cultural centre.
The haveli now stages delightful evening's
entertainment; the pleasurable performance of Rajasthani traditional dance and music in the moody
surroundings of the haveli. It is an ideal place for
an evening entertainment while enjoying the view of
Lake Pichola.
