    The place is known for the cultural function every evening from 7pm to 8pm. The acts, dances and depiction of Rajasthan and its various tribes is quintessential. I would recommend everyone to visit it, believe me it is worth visiting. I won't reveal anything else😉. The charges are ₹100/show. You can pay through cards/wallets too. ❌♿ Entrance to the cultural zone isn't accessible friendly.

The centre works to retain and develop regional cultural resources, including traditional and tribal arts. It is provided with administrative infrastructure by the Government of India.

    We headed to the museum and the folk dance here. So they are two separate things. The museum was ok but we had done the City lake palace and felt like this didn't really compare especially since the museum isn't directly related to the Haveli but just houses different artefacts. The museum also has a small puppet area traditional rajisthani ones which were cool to see. Overall I wouldnt recommend this place as a must do. The folk dance on the other side is an absolute must! We absolutely loved it! The show starts at 7pm daily and runs for an hour. Ticket sales start at 6 15 and we got there at this time to find ques already in waiting. So recommend going at 6 15 or just after if you want to secure a good spot.

    Bagore ki Haveli was well renovated by central government and now part of wzcc. The old Haveli is now a museum for visitor. There are plenty of things for visitor to see during the visit. This Haveli has ideal location. Due to some change you may not able to reach there by car and nearest car parking place is Chandpole or Jagdish chok government parking. There are utensil, costume and turban at this place to see after entrance there is well in middle. Colours of glass and glass works in Haveli . I am not sure when will the show resume again at this place after covid 19. Show are supposed to do at samorbagh garden . There are two more places where we can see this Bhartiya lok kala and kumbha sangeet.

    A must visit place if you are interested in knowing about how the elite lived in the 18th century, the structure of the society. It is located at Gangaur ghat and it is recommended that you go by a two wheeler or an auto rickshaw. Going by car is not as the road is too congested for a car. It is very less crowded compared to the city palace, entry ticket is ₹50. There is a Rajasthani folk song and dance show at 7 pm everyday, the ticket for which is ₹90 for Indians. Keep in mind though, the song and dance show ticket can be purchased only after 6 pm

    Visited with family during January. The entry fee is nominal of Rs.50/ only. There are Arrow marks guiding visitors. No guide required actually. The exhibits are awesome. Very cleanly maintained place with great view of the lake. The staffs are quite responsive. Not much crowded. We were told that in the evening there is a light and sound show. Compared to a lot of havelis and museums that we went this is the best and value for money. I strongly suggest you visit the place. Like the restoration work. The puppets are super. Overall a great experience.

  • 5/5 PRITI R. 2 years ago on Google
    Bagore ki Haveli -- the perfect place to watch the traditional folk dances of Rajasthan. This beautiful show is organized by Dharohar. The ticket to this is 100rs/person also need to buy ticket if anyone wants to capture the photographs / videos. The show depicts all the cultural folk dances of Rajastan like Ghoomar, Bhavai, Gair, Chari, etc and also the story behind performing these dances. The 1hr show totally intrigues the audience. The Gangaur Ghat besides add to the beauty of the haveli. The Ghat looks too beautifull in the evening as the lights shimmers over the water. There are also small local shops nearby which are perfect to buy handicrafts, various hand painted paintings on cloth, wooden sculptures and many more. You can also buy katputlis from the nearby shops. Overall the havelli is beautiful but the location is very crowdy area. Do visit this place to capture amazing experience of entertainment.

    Good place to enjoy the cultural program of rajasthan at one place with relaxing experience in the evening.

  • 4/5 Reghuraj I. 7 years ago on Google
    The best traditional dance and music show hosted in Udaipur. A must place to visit during the evening hours. The show starts at 7pm and lasts for 1 hour. They are trying to showcase some of the fading folk dance forms and there by helping those artists. Awesome performances by artists, the puppeteer and a 70yr old lady steal the show.

  • 5/5 Nishkala R. 5 years ago on Google
    Less of a museum and more of a dance show. But no complaints! The dance is truly spectacular and makes you marvel how effortless it all looks. The show happens everyday between 7-8pm, Tickets per person and for camera are separate. This place gets really crowded very soon so it's advised to go earlier to avoid standing in queues and get the best seats for the show.

    Do not miss this show! It consists of multiple performances from Rajasthani cultural artists. Is scheduled for 7 to 8 PM daily & an extra show on weekends. It's just beside the Gangaur ghat in the premise of 'Bagore ki haveli' in the old city.

    A must visit when going to Udaipur. Evening 7 the show starts you can get tickets online as well as offline. Offline on the counter they expect only cash. Do try to get the tickets online as it's much crowded and try to sit in front rows so that the view is clear. They charge 100 INR for camera entry.

    Not much of glamour here but the cultural program is really good, just don't stick to seeing the inside, take the stairs and go to the roof and outside to get a perfect view of the lake. And also it has a great view of the island hotel.

    Loved it. Cultural dance/puppet show is really a beauty. Gangaur Ghat is a beautiful place specially during evening. Baghore ki Haweli is also a adorable place to see.
