Castle
Mandawa is a curious
mixture of the old and
the new. Medieval
turreted towers,
palanquin-roofed
balconies, blend with
modern comforts in
old-world rooms. Family
portraits, antique
cannons and arms add to
the charm of this
family-run resort where
tradition still runs
strong.
Even time is measured by
a different clock... a
huge brass gong struck
by the resident
timekeepers at the fort
every hour
