Rajiv Gandhi Park - Resplendent Beauty at the Venice of the East

Rajiv Gandhi Park




Heralded as the "Most Romantic City of India' and the "Venice of the East", Udaipur is tucked in the heart of the Aravalli Mountains. This city which has both modernity and ancient tradition features various interconnected lakes and parks, making this landscape a treat to behold and explore. Within the Udaipur town, three lakes intertwine to please and cool the slightly warm temperatures. Lake Pichhola, Fateh Sagar Lake and Swaroop Sagar Lake, flow along the ancient palaces now converted into luxury hotels, forts, temples, mountains and gardens.





The Rajiv Gandhi Park is on its way to becoming a major crowd puller due to its sheer opulent placing and geographical location. Breathtaking gardens and lakes dot Udaipur, and an interesting fact about these gardens is that most of them are made in areas where the idea of a garden would have been incomprehensible, if not for careful planning and irrigational masterminding, Providing an excellent view on Fatehsagar, the park is situated snugly on a hill; certain vantage points have splendid views and intricate foliage designs can be spotted.

Udaipur not only has exotic gardens to showcase, but has ancient forts as well, such as the Kumbhalgarh Fort, Haldighati, Ranakpur and Ghanerao. There are also palaces here such as the City Palace and the Lake Palace, museums such as the Shilpgram Muuseuma and the Ahar Museum and temples such as the Jag Mandir and the Jagdish Mandir. Wildlife enthusiasts should look to visit the Kumbhalgarh Wild Life Sanctuary. There is truly never a dull moment when you visit Udaipur!

Those looking to enjoy a truly memorable holiday can stay at a luxury hotel Udaipur since they feature a traditional Indian charm about them, while also treating their guests like royalty. The Leela Palace Udaipur is one such Udaipur hotel which provides you with luxurious accommodation and comforts. Nestled near the Lake Pichola with a heart stopping view of the Aravalli Mountains, The Leela Palace invokes the luxuriousness and loftiness of the land of the Mewar, through intricately designed architecture and impeccable service.
