Bikaner - Coach of Palace on Wheels
Bikaner came into being in 1486 A.D. when Rao Bika set out to carve a separate kingdom for himself. The colour scheme of the lounge has been motivated by the opulent coronation rooms in burning red and gold of the Anup Mahal and Padam Mahal of the Junagarh fort. The royal state crest is placed on the valance along with some handicrafts of Rajasthan. The ceiling is done up in relief work and an oil painting on canvas, depicting the legendry lovers Dhola and Maru on camelback. The artwork in the lounge is in the Mughal-influenced style of the Bikaner School of Art.
