Udaipur City Tour with City Palace and Lake Pichola
This morning, proceed to the City Palace for the start of your Udaipur sightseeing programme. As a key destination on many Rajasthan luxury tours, Udaipur is known for its lakeside setting, traditional neighbourhoods and long association with regional art and architecture. Begin at the City Palace, the former home of the Mewar rulers. Today, parts of the complex operate as a museum and a heritage hotel. Inside, you will find courtyards, decorative glass work, mosaic details and a series of rooms that illustrate the development of royal design over several centuries. The palace also provides clear views across Lake Pichola and the surrounding hills. Continue to the nearby market area, where narrow lanes and small workshops give a sense of everyday life in Udaipur. Visit Jagdish Temple, built in the seventeenth century, known for its carved pillars, stone detailing and bronze figure of Garuda. Later, visit Sahelion ki Bari, a garden created in the eighteenth century with fountains, shaded pavilions and landscaped lawns. It served as a venue for gatherings hosted by the royal household. In the late afternoon, enjoy a boat cruise on Lake Pichola, including a stop at Jagmandir Island and views of the City Palace and Lake Palace as the light softens toward evening.
