Sikar Tour Packages

About Sikar
Sikar was the largest and the richest 'thikana' (Feudal State) under Jaipur and was founded in the late 17th century. The town followed the city plan of Jaipur. The walled city has lofty buildings, a massive fort and an array of splendid Havelis. Temples are decorated with beautiful frescoes. It is now one of the two districts of Shekhawati, the other being Jhunjhunu. Sikar's large market, the clock tower and the painted Biyani Havelis are must visits. 

One of the havelis is painted only in blue, suggestive of the typical Chinese blue-and-white porcelain. Other attractions include Sagarmal Sodhani Haveli, Madho Niwas-Kothi. Jubilee Hall & Fort. The fort and temples of Gopinath, Raghunath and Madan Mohan with applaudable frescoes are absolutely out of the world. In the close by area there is Jeen Mata Temple and Harsh Nath Temple.
