Salim Singh Ki Haveli
This haveli was built about 300 years ago and a part of it is
still occupied. Salim Singh was the prime minister when
Jaisalmer was the capital of the princely state and his mansion
has a beautifully arched roof with superb carved brackets in the
form of Peacocks. The mansion is just below the hill and it is
said that once it had two additional wooden storeys in an
attempt to make it as high as the maharaja's palace, but the
maharaja had the upper storey torn down.
