TRAVELSM - Rajasthan - UDAIPUR

UDAIPUR - "The City Of Lakes" Udaipur, The City of  Lakes, used to hear this name since my childhood. Udaipur had it's own History as well, because of which I, and like me many other Indian students have read about Udaipur and it's culture in History and in General Knowledge. And after reading about it, obviously always wanted to explore it. And one fine day, last year me and my partner in crime ;) we just spoke "Why not this time while visiting Jaipur, we visit any tourist place nearby, and the name that came up from him was 'Udaipur', I was like am ready, and we informed our family." And the tickets were done. It was last year in October that we traveled from Jaipur to Udaipur i.e., approx 420km. Four of us boarded the overnight train from Jaipur and reached Udaipur early morning at 6:30 am. I was all active to see around; the Railway station was neat and clean and as it was morning time, so hardly few passengers visible on the station
