History
Udaipur, once known as Mewar, is the land that produced a galaxy of patriots and heroes in quick succession, people who etched the name of Rajasthan in every corner of the world. The Mewar dynasty traces its roots to the Sun God. Its history has been a continuous struggle for freedom of religion, thought and land against other Rajput groups as well as the overbearing Mughals and Muslims of bygone eras. Its act of patriotism, heroism, magnanimous behaviour and love for independence can never find any match in the annals of any country.

Lake Pichola
The four-kilometre-long Lake Pichola is world-famous for its beauty, rivalling the best from Venice and the rest of Europe. To experience how amazing the lake is, you need to take a boat ride and check out the two islands in the lake - Jag Mandir and Jag Niwas. Visiting Udaipur and skipping a trip to Lake Pichola is just not done. It also happens to be one of the best places to visit in Udaipur.

The Lake Palace
The Udaipur Lake Palace is a beautiful marble palace located on the Jag Niwas Island on Lake Pichola. It was built in 1734, and while it has been converted into a heritage hotel, it’s number one on our list purely because of the breath-taking architecture. The palace is filled with intricate stonework, gardens, pillared terraces, arches and much more, making it one of the best places to visit in Udaipur. And how about spending a night here?

Jagdish Temple
The four-hundred-year-old Jagdish Temple is dedicated to Lord Vishnu, and features, like all other tourist attractions in Udaipur, ornate sculpture, intricately-carved pillars and absolutely stunning pieces of masonry. Did you know that this temple follows the Vastushastra school of building design? According to this science, the design of a building can be optimized to channel the flow of positive energy.

Jagmandir
Bond movie fans will instantly recognize this spot. It featured in Octopussy, shot in 1983. The Jag Mandir was built in many stages, with construction beginning in 1551 and continuing for many years. It’s located on Lake Pichola and can be reached by boat from the Bansi Ghat Jetty.

The City Palace
The Udaipur City Palace is more than 300 hundred years old, but thanks to efficient maintenance by the government, it looks straight out a movie set.

It takes a full day to explore the City Palace, and even after that, you’ll be left wanting more. It’s one of the grandest places to visit in Udaipur.

Bagore Ki Haveli
Bagore Ki Haveli is a 700-year old historical monument with a checkered history. It changed hands quite often, and until about 30 years ago, it was in disrepair. Then, the West Zone Cultural Centre took over and restored all the broken walls and repaired the pillars using the same traditional methods used to build in the first place. Now, it's open to the public, and a museum, it doesn't disappoint as one of the best places to visit in Udaipur. There are over 138 rooms you can get lost in, gorgeous artwork you can get hypnotized by, and so much of rich history!. Stay on till the evening, and you'll be treated to the best night of Rajasthani music and dance in your life. The best part? It's quite close to Lake Pichola, so you can also plan a dinner right after the dance show. Do sample the best of the regional cuisine as Rajasthani food is delicious!

Shilpgram
Today, to buy a flower vase, we snap out our phones and choose from between thousands of different designs, and then finally purchase one without having to move. In a village, though, we'd have to make one ourselves. To throw some light on this very way of life, the Rajasthan state government runs an art complex called the Shilpgram, which translates to 'village of art'. While taking a walk through this full-size replica of a self-sufficient Indian village, you'll be surprised at the variety of architecture on display. There are more than 30 different installations to see, and it's a great place to take your kids to. They even organize a festival called the Shilpgram Utsav every year. Shilpgram brings you back closer to ethnicroots, and that makes it one of the best places to go sightseeing in Udaipur.
