Wanna buy old Havelis/Mansions/Forts - djcric - 03-22-2016 I think some of them look great, although I am thinking of buying a small fort. Why? Because its priced at less than a 1 bed room apt, and people think forts are hard to maintain, but I can live with that http://www.bbc.com/travel/story/20160311-a-crumbling-birthplace-of-billionaires I like this one: Re: Wanna buy old Havelis/Mansions - djcric - 03-22-2016 And here are the forts for sale/rent: http://www.rajtourism.com/heritage/html/heritagejaip.htm Much less than when they first started selling these. Most were renovated and transformed into Hotels... http://www.theguardian.com/world/2011/feb/10/rajasthan-stately-homes-on-sale Re: Wanna buy old Havelis/Mansions/Forts - ketchim - 03-22-2016 LoL ...can part of the condition of sale : have the Elephant facing the odda way ?  Re: Wanna buy old Havelis/Mansions/Forts - djcric - 03-22-2016 Lol, I was thinking that too... why is the elephants' behinds facing the front  I think they're actually facing the front door so the person entering will see them face to face. Re: Wanna buy old Havelis/Mansions/Forts - ketchim - 03-23-2016 Legend has it that all elephants must face door even an ornament inside your home .
