This elegant, Mughal-style haveli in the countryside outside Bharatpur, roughly midway between Agra and Jaipur, makes a perfect springboard for trips in the nearby Keoladeo National Park. The mansion, which is ranged around a traditional central courtyard, was built by a Muslim nobleman in the mid-19th century and retains lots of period charm, with numerous onion-domed pavilions and lovely antique furniture. Between bird-spotting safaris in the park, explore the rooftops terraces for great views over the surrounding fields and adjacent village, or simply relax by the pool.
