Udaipur in Rajasthan, is one of my favourite places to relax. A good starting point before taking on the the hustle and bustle of exploring other parts of India.
Photographically it has a lot to offer. Bags of colour and interesting people.
The Famous Lake Palace and surroundings
Dhobi time at the Ganguar Ghat.
The City Palace has some wonderful examples of Indian craftsmanship as you would find anywhere.
I recommend the Lake Pichola Hotel as a friendly, relaxing place to stay.

A Night Heron using an inner tube to scan the deeper water. Kite on a TV arial. Drongos, Bulbul, and much more
Udaipur is a good starting point for bird watching and bird photography. The more I travel around southern Rajasthan, the more I've realised you can see most of the regular Indian species and quite a few rare winter visitors in this relatively small area. See 'Birds of Rajasthan' page.

If you want a car or a rickshaw- Samshu is your man. I have his phone number.
Evenings in Udaipur with the sunsets, full moon and reflections in the lake and the occasional firework are magical
These photos were taken October 2004.... The year the Lake was dry - "Park Pichola"
