Lake Pichola is one of the famous Man Made lake. The hour-long boat ride along the lake becomes of the most romantic things to do in Udaipur as evening culminates into night, filling the sky with stars. A boat ride gives a view of the various palaces of the city- The City Palace, Lake Palace, Jagmandir and Udai Vilas. We did our boating from Lal Ghat as it was very near from our hotel. One can also opt boating from Rameshwar Ghat in the city palace gardens. The best time to go for this boat ride is at dusk so you can see the magical light falling on the lake and palaces and experience the beautiful colour palette of the evening sky and breathe in this beauty.
Evening boating can cost 400 Rs/person.
