The "City of Lakes" is
perhaps one of the most romantic and beautiful cities of India and it
stands out with an enchanting image of white marble palaces, blue lakes,
temples surrounded by hills and mountains. The marvellous architecture of
its palaces is spell bounding.
Founded in 1599 by Maharaja Udai
Singh, the house of Mewar is surrounded by the Aravali mountain ranges.
Situated on the edge of three lakes, its narrow streets lined with shops
and craftsmen's ateliers encourage hours of window-shopping for tourists.

Excursions
Nathdwara,
Built in the early 18th century, Nathdwara, 48 km from Udaipur, has a
simple shrine dedicated to Lord Krishna. The temple is the most celebrated
of the Vaishnava shrines of Shrinathji or Lord Krishna. Thousands of
pilgrims come to the temple daily. Cloth paintings, known as pichwais, of
Nathdwara are famous and it is possible to see artists working
painstakingly on these intricate pieces of art.
Deogarh, For adventure-seekers,
nature-lovers and bird-watchers, Deogarh is the ideal holiday spot. The
palace here is a fascinating place for those wanting to delve into the
history of the state. A three-hour drive (135 km) from Udaipur. Deogarh
Mahal is a 16th century palace. The imaginatively restored palace is an
excellent example of this genre of hoteliering.
Eklingji,
26 km from Udaipur. Chiselled out of sandstone and marble, a complex of
108 temples enclosed by high walls, it was built in 734 AD. The temple is
devoted to the family deity of the rulers of Mewar.
Kumbhalgarh
Fort, a two-hour-drive from Udaipur, is famous for its 15th
century fort and game sanctuary. Approachable by road, the huge stone
bastion stands atop a hill and allows access through spiked gates. The
fort wall covers miles over the hillside and a walk on it can be
invigorating. Another refreshing walk is through the sanctuary.
Alternatively, you can take a jeep or horse safari. There is crocodile
farm in the sanctuary and a forest rest house.
Ranakpur,
48 km from Kumbhalgarh and 90 km from Udaipur are the Ranakpur temples.
The cluster of temples, made of intricately sculpted white marble come
across as a marvellous feat of architecture. It would take anyone by
surprise to learn that they were built in 1460, so well preserved and
sparkling is the marble. The main temple is supported on 1,444 pillars -
none of which are similarly carved. Four main domes, again beautifully
carved, look down upon you. The Jain temples house statues of Mahavira and
other Jain saints.
Ghanerao, 18 km from
Ranakpur, houses the castle where Meera Bai (worshipper of Lord Krishna)
spent her childhood. Within the red sandstone walls of Royal Castle
Ghanerao, built in the 15th century, is a temple with the idol she
worshipped. A part of the castle has been turned into a hotel, another
part is used by the present generation of the royal family. Kumbhalgarh
sanctuary extends to the periphery of Ghanerao village. Several lakes
surround the village. The castle can also be your base for a horse safari
in the region.
Nagda, (23 km) The ancient site
dating back to the 6th century A.D. is renowned for the Sas-Bahu temples
(9th - 10th century A.D.) with interesting architecture and carvings. The
splendid Jain temples of Adbudji are also worth a visit.
Haldighati, (40 km) A historical site, witness to the
great battle fought between Maharana Pratap and the Mughal Emperor Akbar
in 1576 A.D. The 'Chhatri' of Maharana's horse-Chetak is noteworthy.
FAIRS & FESTIVALS
Mewar Festival, (March-April) The festival is the
ceremonial welcome to spring and is dedicated to goddess Parvati. A
procession of colourfully attired women, carrying images of the goddess to
the Gangaur Ghat of the Lake Pichhola is the major highlight. Songs,
dances and firework displays mark the festivities.
Gangaur
Festival, (March-April) The festival is popular among women who
pray to the goddess Parvati. A procession of caparisoned horses and
elephants accompanying the image of Lord Shiva is the major attraction.
Teej, (July-August) In the festival celebrating
the advent of monsoon.
Sightseeing
Lake Pichola, Derives its name from Pichali village, is
surrounded by hills, palaces, temples, bathing ghats and embankments.
There are two island palaces, Jag Niwas and Jag Mandir. The first, summer
residence of the princes of Mewar, has been converted into a hotel. Jag
Mandir is built of red sandstone with a marble dome.
City
Palace, The largest palace complex of Rajathan,304 metres in
height and 244 metres in length was started by Udai Singh and subsequently
built upon by later rulers. The main part of the palace is now preserved
as the City Palace Museum with a large and varied collection of artefacts.
Shilpgram, On the outskirts of
Udaipur, Shilpgram is a crafts and performing arts centre and houses
craftsmen from different states who display their crafts and products for
visitors' benefit. It serves as an excellent venue for tourists looking
for memento
.
Jagdish Temple, Dedicated to
Lord Vishnu, the temple was built in 1651 by Maharana Jagat Singh I.
Saheliyon Ki Bari, (Farden of the maids of Honour)
This small ornamental garden was a popular relaxing spot where royal
ladies came for a stroll and hence the name. The garden has many fountains
in its four delightful pools, chiselled kiosks and marble elephants.
Pratap Memorial, The
monument is a homage to Rana Pratap and his faithful steed. There is also
a Japanese Rock Garden in the vicinity.
Bharatiya Lok Kala Mandal, A
museum of folk art. Puppeteers regularly put up shows here.
Fatehsagar, A beautiful lake, overlooked by a number of
hills on the three sides and the Pratap Memorial on the north was built by
Maharana Fateh Singh. In the middle of the lake is Nehru Park - lovely
garden island with a boat shaped cafe accessible by an enjoyable boat
ride.
