Udaipur : The city was founded
in 1567 AD by Maharana Udai Singh on the advice of a
sage. Udaipur was last of the numerous Mewar capitals.
It was in Udaipur that legendary Maharana Pratap was
born. He was obsessed with Chittaur and the past glories
of the Sisodia clan possessed his mind. Maharana Pratap
left Udaipur to win back Chittaur from the Mughals. But
he failed in his attempts and Udaipur remained the
capital of Mewar till India got her independence.The
memory of the failure of noble Pratap gives Udaipur its
pervading mood of nostalgic wistfulness. |

| The city acquires its scenic beauty
from the Aravallis. Three lakes- Pichola, Fateh Sagar
and Udai Sagar make it an oasis in the
desert. |
Udaipur is known as the ' City of Lakes'. The
two most scenic and famous lakes of the city are Lake Pichola
and Lake Fateh Sagar. Lake Pichola is surrounded by hills,
palaces, temples, bathing ghats and has two island palaces-
Jag Niwas and Jag Mandir. Lake Fateh sagar lies to north of
Pichola and was built by Maharana Jai Singh but it got the
name of Fateh Singh who rebuilt its dam. Both the lakes are
breathtakingly beautiful and one can take a cruise on their
waters. The sunset over these lakes is a sight to be
cherished. |
