Located on a narrow lane in the main Jaisalmer city, Patwon ki haveli was constructed by Guman Chand Patwa and his five sons. Guman Chand was a famous trader of his times and dealt in gold, brocade and silver.
What you see in this image just a 5th part of the complete Haveli. The entire Haveli has 5 such sections, for each of Guman Chand's 5 sons. It is believed that it took about a 50 years to complete the construction of the entire haveli.
