Short introduction
The Sethi House is set in a neighborhood of twelve famous Havelis in Peshawar’s Old City, all of which were built in the 19th century. The frequently-
y-visited Sethi Haveli was built in 1884, and was owned by the Sethi family–wealthy traders who had businesses throughout South and Central Asia. The Haveli showcases a Central Asian design and was inspired by the architecture seen in Bukhara, Uzbekistan. Stained glass windows, intricate wooden carvings, and an elaborate underground basement area can all be admired by visitors.
