Shekhawati, lies inside the triangle made by the Bikaner, Jaipur and Delhi - it is the region that lies within this zone. It is a mini desert region of north Rajasthan. The region takes the name of its erstwhile ruler Rao Shekha and Shekhawati's actual meaning is the “Garden of Shekha'. The region is replete with Palaces (Havelis) with beautiful wall paintings. The entire Shekhawati region has mesmerized millions of tourists and has been aptly dubbed as the 'Open Art Gallery' of Rajasthan'.
Shekhawati is also the home to various small fortresses, minor castles, mosques, wells (baodis) and also a deer sanctuary. Ideally the region should be traversed on a Horse Safari or a Camel Safari to enjoy the semi desert formation and the well preserved wall painted Havelis.  The climate varies to the extremes and it is advisable to carry the woolens if the travel is planned during Oct-Feb. There are many tourist spots within the region and stay at Alsisar Mahal turned hotel would be memorable.
