Udaipur: the City of Love. In the minds of many, it is the most beautiful destination in Rajasthan if not in the whole of India. The city’s amazing palaces, temples, havelis and narrow, colourful streets are set beside Lake Pichola, a heart-achingly romantic, with the wooded Aravalli Hills on all sides.
Despite the inevitable hordes, we still can’t resist a couple of nights surrounded by Udaipur’s magnificent sights. Almost any travel brochure you pick up will have a picture of Udaipur as the main image and it’s not without reason. James Bond decided it was the perfect place to chase villains in the 1983 classic Octopussy and more recently The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel was filmed there.
