The twin villages of Alsisar and Malsisar are named after two sisters, Alsi and Malsi, daughters of a farmer who first settled here. Samrath Singh, the second of the five sons of Sardul Singh
settled at Alsisar in 1783. The fort he established stands derelict on a promontory. The village street is an unending row of deserted mansions richly decorated with paintings which are well
preserved. The style of the frescoes here and lively colour combinations are a treat for the eyes. Also the forts in Alsisar & Malsisar, as well as the temples and the Jhunjunwala havelis are
magnificent. Besides painted havelis, wells and reservoir with ornamental traditional architecture are worth seeing in both the villages. |
