Breakfast first, then prepare for a day of continuous sightseeing in Udaipur. First on the order of the day is the magnificent City Palace, proudly situated at the waters' edge of Lake Pichola. It is one of Rajasthan's biggest palace complexes and gives us a glimpse of the Mewar rulers' life. Walking in its balconies, courtyards, and halls, you would be surprised to observe how detailed the architecture is and how royal the past used to be. The view of the lake and the city from the upper floors is just breathtaking.
Directly opposite the palace is Jagdish Temple, an imposing 17th-century temple for Lord Vishnu. Its white marble pillars, sculptures, and tranquil atmosphere are the ideal pit-stop during your city stroll. Afternoon outing to Saheliyon Ki Bari, or Garden of Maidens. This beautiful garden was constructed for the women of the royal household and boasts fountains, lotus pools, and marble pavilions. It's a serene spot where you can unwind, stroll, and immerse yourself in nature.
Finish your day at Fateh Sagar Lake, yet another picturesque lake in the city. You can either have some tea and snacks in the lakeside cafes or simply sit by the lakeside and observe. Then return to your hotel and relax.
Begin your day with a healthy breakfast and drive to Sajjangarh Fort, also known as the Monsoon Palace. Located on a hilltop, this fort was originally constructed to monitor the arrival of monsoon clouds. Today, it provides one of Udaipur's finest panoramic views of its lakes and mountains. The wind up here at the fort is invigorating, and it's an excellent location for photography. Then visit the Vintage Car Museum, where you have the opportunity to see vintage cars that were previously owned by the Udaipur royal family. It's a good place to visit, particularly if you love vintage ambiance and car history.
Spend the afternoon at Shilpgram, a crafts and arts village on the outskirts of the city in the countryside. Watch artisans busy producing pottery, clothing, jewelry, and other things. It's an excellent place to shop for souvenirs and experience some of the rural culture of Rajasthan. If you're there at the correct time, you may also get to experience some impromptu folk performance or dance recital at the open-air theater.
In the evening, head to Bagore Ki Haveli for a cultural show that rekindles Rajasthan's dance and music culture. In their colourful attire, to thundering drum beats, and fluid movements, the show is as enjoyable as it is symbolic. Post the show, dinner at a rooftop restaurant of the locals, and then back to the hotel at night.
Slow down your final day at Udaipur. Start your day with breakfast and then spend it doing some last-minute shopping at Hathi Pol, Bada Bazaar, or Clock Tower Market. These markets are full of colorful textiles, miniature paintings, silver jewelry, and handmade crafts something great to take a piece of Udaipur back home.
If time permits, enjoy a last walk by the lake or have tea at a café overlooking the water. The calm and charm of Udaipur will surely leave a lasting impression. After check-out, you’ll begin your journey back to Agra, either by train, road, or connecting flight, depending on your travel choice.
