{udai bilas palace, rajasthan}


Udaipur, often referred to as "The City of Dreams" or the "Venice of the East", is perhaps the most romantic city in Rajasthan.

Udai Bilas Palace is said to be the biggest palace in the state of Rajasthan, dating back to the mid 19th century, with Maharaja Udai Singhji II (a great patron of Art & Architecture) laying the first foundations.
