Remember the Time
Enjoy your evening cup of tea/coffee on the terrace of Shiv Niwas Palace, Udaipur, to the haunting strains of Indian classical music, as you see a boat making its way on Lake Pichhola to the breathtaking Lake Palace.

A different view of the Taj Mahal

The time when Maharajas reigned, when style remained supreme. When forts were bigger than towns, and each palace more opulent than the other. The time when tigers were abundant in wilds. The time when passions reigned supreme, when women jumped into raging fires rather than lose their honor, when a sudden burst of creativity resulted in entirely new towns being made, when sheer love led to the construction of the Taj...
