This is the main historic attrraction in Udaipur, and it's a real shame the owners have basically found a way of making a quick buck on the side. They rent the palace out for weddings, and therefore the whole entrance/main courtyard of the palace is taken up with hundreds of staff busily putting up massive stages, lighting displays, temporary furniture... more

After so many positive reviews we were looking forward to visiting the City Palace Museum. It was dirty, hot, over crowded and poorly maintained. The limited interpretation information available made little sense and most of the displays were difficult to reach due to the numbers of people. The one-way nature of the building with its tight narrow corridors and numerous... more

its a very well maintained palace that proudly reveals the great history of mewar. All the exhibitions and paintings were marvelous. A small refreshment at the Pallkhi khana is all that you need to relax you after your tiring day. The Souviner shop which is named Aashka has many attractive things like handicraft stuff made by the local craftsmen.... in... more

My husband & I visited the City Palace at Udaipur on 31MAY09. In the boiling heat of the city, the old architecture of thick walls, small windows, and water bodies kept the temperature inside the palace at a very pleasant level. One wouldnt believe one was in the Thar desert. The palace is beautiful, but doesnt let one forget the... more

We had just arrived from Jaipur, traveling the whole night and reached Udaipur at 7:00 AM. We had ample plans for sight seeing around Udaipur, but the overnight journey had taken a toll out of our bodies, hence we decided to skip sight seeing that day. One of the relatives, whose apartment we were staying mentioned that the City palace... more

There is an Audio Guide available for 250INR which is really good. If you travel by yourself it is for sure worth it as you never know how good the guide is that you meet at the entrance and offers his service. If you are a group the guide might make sense as they are not expensive. I heard that... more

This is the best palace I have seen. It costs 50Rs/person for entry fee + 50Rs for Parking + 200Rs if you want to take pictures inside. I suggest you should take the camera inside. You can take a guide for better understanding of the palace history and all.. Else carry a guide book you get from streets down there... more
