Himmat Mahal

A guest room at Neemrana's Tijara Fort Palace features a bed with a patterned cover, bedside tables with lamps, artwork in a red arched alcove, a decorative textile hanging, and air conditioning.
A hallway at Tijara Fort-Palace - 19th Century, Alwar features arched openings, tiled flooring, a chair, a bench, framed artwork, and a single bed with a bedside table and lamp in an orange arched alcove and a glimpse into another guest room is visible.

The Mardana rooms are built around a spacious garden court ringed on three sides by spectacular arcade halls. These had never been completed and large rocks had to be hand-chiselled to create linear living spaces. The thick walls were pierced to make balconies with views of the countryside. Each room has two or three square rooms linked with wide arches and the facilities are discreetly tucked within.

This long room with three square spaces linked with two wide arches honours the sculptor Himmat Shah whose work has remained far ahead of his times. Best-known for his terracotta human heads, he has created a new species within his genre.
