Overview & Highlights
Beside shimmering Lake Pichola, with the ochre and purple ridges of the wooded Aravalli Hills stretching away in every direction, Udaipur has a romance of setting unmatched in Rajasthan and arguably in all of India. Fantastical palaces, temples, havelis, and countless narrow, crooked, timeless streets add a human counterpoint to the city’s natural charms. For the visitor, there’s the tranquillity of boat rides on the lake, the bustle and color of ancient bazaars, a lively arts scene, the quaint old-world feel of its better hotels, endless tempting shops, and some lovely countryside to explore on wheels, feet or horseback. Udaipur’s tag of ‘the most romantic spot on the continent of India’ was first applied in 1829 by Colonel James Tod, the East India Company’s first political agent in the region. Today the romance is wearing slightly thin as ever-taller hotels compete for the best view and traffic clogs ancient thoroughfares.
