Laxmi Niwas Palace, Heritage palace in Bikaner, India

The red sandstone structure displays Indo-Saracenic architecture with carved pillars, ornate ceilings, marble courtyards, and decorated balconies throughout its halls.

British architect Sir Samuel Swinton Jacob designed this residence for Maharaja Ganga Singh in the late 19th century as a gift for Maharani Laxmi.

Local hereditary craftsmen from Bikaner created intricate stone carvings that reflect traditional Rajasthani design elements across the palace's exterior and interior spaces.

The palace contains 42 air-conditioned rooms with dressing areas, a restaurant serving regional cuisine, and multiple facilities including a pool and conference spaces.

The entrance features a clock tower while interior spaces display gold wall paintings, royal portraits, and hunting trophies from the maharaja's collection.
