Jag Niwas

Fateh Sagar Lake
North of Pichola Lake is Fateh Sagar built in 1678 with an embankment added by Fateh Singh in 1889. A lovely walk along this lake and in the Saheliyon-ki-Bari (the garden for the lady companions) offers an opportunity to appreciate Udaipur in the way it was meant to be enjoyed. The old city has a charm of its own. The narrow and undulating roads are lined with shops and stores in which the wares are as colorful as the customers.

City Palace
Overlooking the lake, on the eastern bank, was a natural hillock which was incorporated into the protective fortification of the City Palace. The royal palace walls stretch over a mile on the eastern side of the lake, and within the palace are a maze of inner courtyards, apartments, and decorated halls.

Pichola Lake
Pichola Lake takes its name from a small village nearby which was enlarged by Udai Singh when he planned his new capital on its banks.

Shilpgram
Literally meaning a "Craftsmen's Village" is a living ethnographic museum depicting the enormous diversities in craft, art & culture between various Indian states, but the exquisite terracotta work mainly in dark red and dark brown sand material along with the wooden carvings are the forte of this ethnic village.
