Udaipur: City of Lakes — Guides, Itineraries & Tour Packages
Udaipur is Rajasthan’s City of Lakes, known for its interconnected water bodies, grand Mewar-era palaces, hilltop viewpoints, lively bazaars and refined dining. It suits couples, families, photographers, history lovers and relaxed weekend travellers. October usually brings clearer skies, greener surroundings after the monsoon and warm afternoons, while evenings become more comfortable; November to February is cooler and especially popular. Most visitors arrive by flight at Maharana Pratap Airport, or by train and road from Jaipur, Ahmedabad, Jodhpur or Delhi, then explore the compact old city and surrounding lakes.
