| The city of dawn,
Udaipur is a lovely land around the azure water lakes, hemmed in by
the lush hills of the Aravalis. A vision in white drenched in romance
and beauty, Udaipur is a fascinating blend of sights, sounds and experiences-an
inspiration for the imagination of poets, painters and writers.
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 maharajas were weighed under the gate in gold, the equivalent
amount of which was distributed among the populace. |
