Known for its tradition of royal hospitality, present day Udaipur straddles many worlds. While time seems to stand still in the opulent palaces, in the quaint bazaars of the city, the business is noisy and busy. Here cyber cafes operate cheek-by-jowl with ancient temples. In the City Palace Complex, grand palaces and resorts have lovingly preserved the original lifestyle of royal Rajasthan. You can spend hours within the City Palace, marveling at its architectural grandeur. It's time you let yourself be overwhelmed by history unfolding before you. The Lake Palace is the superb example of the cultural Rajasthan. It is full of havelis, mansions and palaces. Udaipur enjoys many green gardens as there plenty of water in the state.
