An important stopover on Palace on Wheels tour, UDAIPUR is also known as the "City of Palaces", a "Fairyland" and a "Vision in Dream".

The lakeside city was built on a small wooded plain encircled by mountains, which was in direct contrast to the masculinity of Chittor and Kumbhalgarh. The houses and temples of the old city stretch out around the Lake Pichola in a pale honeycomb that makes Udaipur an oasis of colors in a stark and arid region like Rajasthan. | |
