Destination introduction
A former royal capital of the kingdom of Mewar, Udaipur boasts fairytale Rajput-era palaces and a romantic lake-side setting. Many of this beautiful city’s exquisite palaces jostle against evocative ghats, ornate temples and lively bazaars along the picturesque lake front.
Just 45 minutes from Udaipur, Devi Garh is home to one of India's finest royal residences, an 18th-century palace that has now been restored into one of India’s premier hotels.
