Lake City Udaipur

Udaipur - Friday 13th April to Monday 16th April 2007 After a gruelling 14 hour day of travel (4 hours in a taxi, two flights including one by turbo-prop) from Thekkady we arrived at Udaipur Airport at 7.00 pm and 36 °C. We had booked two rooms at the Shiv Niwas Palace as a treat for everyone. The Maharaja still lives in private quarters of the palace. We arrived to find that the hotel had not, could not actually provide the rooms we had reserved and to make up for this fact they eventually g...

City of Lakes

First about the hotel. The Palace Rooms were absolutely great. It had such huge balconies, probably bigger than the room itself.

Was pressed for time so could only explore City Palace and Museum & Lake Pichola.

That marked the end of this beautiful trip.

On the fourth side of the square pond was a sizable altar containing a large statue of Ganesha (widely revered as the Remover of Obstacles) and several smaller statues of other Hindu deities. <br><br> The Lily Pond became a bookend to our days at the palace. As soon as we opened our door, we were greeted by the view and the smell of the flowers both in the pond and the rose and lily petals placed in large, glass, lens ...

The very best of Rajasthan

... huge fruit bats taking flight over the lake after sunset!!<br><br>The biggest in Rajasthan, the City Palace is quite a lovely imposing structure, taking up half of the east bank of the lake. It&#8217;s got a façade of 244m long and 31m high, with cream towers, cupolas and balconies. Various maharajahs created additional buildings, but the original was constructed by M&#8217;a Udai Singh II (the city&#8217;s founder), in the 17th century. The following day I walked to the ...

Octopussy 365 Days a Year

... So one day in Udaipur, the so called Venice of the East... The city itself is well known for it's location on the Lake. However, it is best known for an Island Palace on the lake that was featured in Octopussy. Because of the connection dozens of restaurants in town play the movie every night, 365 days a year. Could you imagine being a waiter at ones of those ...

Udaipur

We reach Udaipur after yet another frustrating experience at a train station. I've avoided complaining so far but...On arrival at Ajmer train station the train to Udaipur was scheduled one hour late, of course over the next few hours this gradually stretched to three hours. I stood there watching the screen and every time the train was ten minutes away the arrival time would click back another half hour. Eventually, at three am we go to the platform for the displayed ...

delightful day in Udaipur

... of yeafrs. Ou r hotel room is that way. Although we are on an upper floor, the pool is built on terraces and steps so that we walk out to our private patio to a private inlet of the pool. We walked through a garden that was built centuries ago only for women. Each section had a distinct fountain that was built to have the water sound like the design of the garden. There as a rainforest garden, a ...

A lake, a palace and some serious bone cracking

... 3 amazing days and really enjoyed visiting the beautiful City Palace and the Jagdish Temple (beautifully carved pillars, decorated ceilings, painted walls and covered with sculptures of dancers, elephants, horsemen and musicians).

Udaipur to Dungapura 'The city of Hills'

... the city of hills'. The roads snake their way around and over the hills, expanding the views of the surroundings, but more enjoyably these roads are what makes people motorbike. I try to keep to the best racing line so that I effortlessly weave with flow of the road. Long journeys on monotonous flat roads can border on unbearable but roads like these I could travel on all day everyday. So as the ride is going so well and the surroundings matching up ...
