Udaipur

We spend our second night in Udaipur. You will be thrilled as to why we did this. Known as the City of Lakes with a palace on Lake Pichola, it is the residence of the royal family, who live in a private part of the palace. The rest of the palace is accessible to the public and is an architectural delight to stroll through, admire some of the intricate details of its construction, and learn about its fascinating history. We also enjoy a boat ride on Lake Pichola. There are so many places to eat, shop, or simply wander and people-watch. In the center of the old town is one of the largest and most visited Hindu temples, the 'Jagdish Hindu Temple' from the 16th century, which is definitely worth the ascent up the steps to the temple entrance. Overnight in Udaipur. (F/A)

Udaipur - Mount Abu (160 km approx. 3.5 hrs):

After breakfast, we say goodbye to Udaipur and head to the west side of the Aravalli mountain range, passing lush green trees and diverse terrain. Mount Abu is a hill station and because it is higher than its surroundings, it is pleasantly cooler there. There are several surrounding lakes, the largest being Nakki Lake, which is popular with boaters and tourists. Set your camera mode to capture 'every conceivable color', including the panoramic landscape and the reflective lake water. Guru Sikhar crowns at over 1700 m north of Mount Abu and peacefully overlooks the mountain range and the valley below, easily reachable via the winding road to the summit. Overnight in Mount Abu.
