Sahelion-Ki-Bari (Garden Of The Maids
of Honour) |
Saheliyon-ki-Bari or the 'Garden of the Maids of Honour',
so called because the royal ladies came here for a
stroll, is a well laid out garden, with extensive lawns
and shady walks. With flowerbeds lined along the picturesque
park, this small garden is located on the lakeside of the second
major lake of Udaipur - Fateh Sagar Lake.
The garden was constructed for forty-eight young ladies-in-waiting
sent to the royal house, as part of the dowry. This small
ornamental garden was a popular relaxing spot where royal ladies
came for a stroll. The garden has many fountains in its
four delightful pools, sculpted kiosks and marble elephants
Its manicured lawns display a marvellous range of bougan villea
and five fountains release showers in tune with their
titles namely, 'Welcome'; 'Raining Cats and Dogs';
'Rains in Midnight', 'Rains without Clouds'; 'Gentle
Shower in Mid Day'.
The garden is open from 9 AM to 6 PM daily. The charge for turning
on the water fountains is a very minimal amount of Rs.2.
