Shekhawati Region - Rajasthan's Open-Air Art Gallery
No other region in India, or perhaps, even in the world, has such a large
concentration of high quality frescoes as the region of Shekhawati. In the
beginning, this semi-arid region had only its blank monochromatic palette to
offer. No school of painting thrived till history and circumstances took up
this colorless page and made it blossom with art for almost two centuries -
from 1750 to 1930. Today, this region is commonly called this 'open-air art
gallery of Rajasthan'.
Come on board the Heritage on Wheels and relive the past on a moving
experience for three nights four days, twice a week from Jaipur or on a
