List of Localities in udaipur

Udaipur is a city in Rajasthan. It’s a municipal corporation and also the administrative headquarters of the district bearing the same name. Several major cities of Rajasthan, such as Jaipur, Kota, and Alwar, are located within a few hundred kilometers from Udaipur. In fact, because it’s situated in southern Rajasthan, it’s only 250 km away from Ahmedabad.

Historically, Udaipur was the capital of the Mewar kingdom in the former Rajputana Agency. Maharana Udai Singh II founded the city in 1553, which happened to be the last capital of the Mewar kingdom. This element of history is reflected in Udaipur’s architecture and, to some extent, in the culture. The several Rajput-era palaces in this historic city stand as a testimony to this fact.

Udaipur is affectionately called either the City of Lakes or the Venice of the East. It has 5 major lakes, including Pichola Lake, Fateh Sagar Lake, and Rangsagar Lake, and some other minor ones as well. There are several palaces, too, that are lined up against the lake frontiers, reminding visitors of Venice. Some of these palaces have now turned into luxury hotels, responding to the huge tourism industry in the city.
