Bikaner sightseeing would be incomplete without a visit to Junagarh Fort. The 'Old Fort,' as it is often known, recalls the legends and valour of the Maharajas of Bikaner. The fort was built in 1594 by Raja Rai Singh, the 6th monarch of Bikaner, and was known as the 'Chintamani Fort' at the time.
Mojaris (Bikaneri style footwear), rangi dupatta, Kundan work, wooden antiquities, Rasgullas, bhujia, lacquer bangles, and carpets can be purchased. Bikaner is also well-known for its wonderful pieces of art produced from camel leather.
The Rampuria Havelis are the most well-known examples of the style. These 7 residences on the same streets were built with red-purplish dulmera stone by three brothers from the affluent Rampuria family.
