City Palace
A majestic architectural marvel towering over the lake on a
hill surrounded by crenellated walls, it is a conglomeration
of courtyards, pavilions, terraces, corridors, rooms and hanging
gardens. The main entrance is through the triple arched gate,
the ‘Tripolia’ with eight marble porticos. The Maharana were
weighed under the gate in the gold, the equivalent amount of
which was distributed among the populace. The museum in the
palace articulates it's history and is an exquisite gallery
of the arts of that time.
Saheliyon-ki-Bari (Garden of the maids of Honour)
And the queen said she wants rain in the hot summer so the
king built the of garden of maids. 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, chiseled kiosks and marble elephants.
The fountains give the ambiance of rain and the bush under
are as lush as ones you saw in the amazon.
 Fateh Sagar
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-a lovely
garden island with a boat shaped café accessible by an enjoyable
boat ride. The larger shape of lake resembles the map of India.
 Lake Palace
Founded in 1568 by Maharana Udai Singh, the Lake city of Udaipur
is often referred as the 'Venice of the East'. Studded with
extravagant palaces, hilltop fortresses, awe-inspiring temples
and romantic gardens filled with blossoming trees, this 'City
of Dreams' is, not surprisingly, a favourite with travellers,
both Indian and Foreign. A fantasy island palace shimmering
on mirror-calm Lake Pichola, the Lake Palace is one of the
most romantic hotels in the world.
