This blog is all about Udaipur monsoon must-visit places where Purohito ka Talab shines bright and is the newest add-on in the city guidebook.

Udaipur is my favorite city in Rajasthan. It is why known as Venice of the East. This city of lakes has so many fascinating spots you experience intricate architecture, beautiful lakes, profound history, vibrant tradition, and picturesque landscape.

An enchanting setting surrounded by lush green Aravalli hills and the Thar desert separates the city from the rest of the world. Udaipur is less hectic and has a relaxed environment during the off-season. During the winter— you will be enticed to see the festivals since it is overcrowded from November to March. What if we told you that some hidden gems of the city are just as beautiful as their famous counterparts?

Udaipur is not a big city, but you have several options to spend your itinerary trip. A three-day Udaipur trip is enough to explore the place. After spending a hectic day around the city, you have a lot of eateries around for relaxing and fueling yourself.

It is the most romantic city in Rajasthan. The sunset view at the lakeside is truly mesmerizing, and we forget all the tensions of life at that moment.

Tourist highlights are Sajjangarh Palace, City Palace, Lake Pichola, Fatehsagar Lake, Bagore ki Haveli, Gangaur Ghat, Hanuman Ghat, Jag Mandir, Karni Mata Ropeway, Doodh Talai, Jagdish Temple, etc.
