History of Udaipur

Maharana Udai Singh was a descendant of the mighty Sisodias who claim their descent from the sun god, Surya. The Sisodias are recognized as the oldest ruling family in the world and were perhaps the mightiest among the warrior clans in Rajasthan.

One of the reasons for shifting the capital of Mewar from Chittaur to Udaipur was to ward off constant enemy attacks. Surrounded by the Aravalli's Udaipur was protected naturally and was considered quite safe

The land of the legendary saint Mira Bai and dauntless Maharana Pratap, Udaipur literally means the land of dawn and is popularly known as the 'city of lakes'. Udaipur is a bustling world of scrub forests, lakes, monuments and even wild animals and surprises you with its glassy lakes in the midst of desert Rajasthan.

Capital of erstwhile Mewar, Udaipur is a storehouse of fascinating monuments in white marble, ornamental royal gardens and ancient temples.
