|
| § Rajsamand Lake |
|
Close to Nathdwara, about 66 kms, is the dam, built by Maharana Raj Singh in 1660 A.D. Many ornamental arches and chhatris adorn the embankment. |

| § Udaipur |
|
Udaipur is 48 kms from Nathdwara. The city of Udaipur is a lovely land around the Azure water lakes hemmed in by the lush hills of the Aravalis. Udaipur is a fascinating blend of sights sounds and experience-an inspiration for the imagination of poets, painters and writers. |
