The Hindilyan House is the most ornate, and among the most preserved Renaissance houses in Plovdiv. The house was built in 1834-1835 by unknown builders on behalf of a wealthy merchant who often travelled to India, hence the name Hindilyan.
The house was decorated with murals on the walls and ceilings, made by two craftsmen from the village of Chirpan. This project took them over six months. The murals are still preserved in very good condition. The courtyard also shows a careful attention to detail.
The house is the jewel of all the unique Old Plovdiv houses, and is one of the most visited places in the city.
