Lake Pichola
Surrounded by hills, palaces, embankments and bathing ghats, the beautiful lake derives its name from the Pichali village. There are two island palaces including Jag Niwas and Jag Mandir that display the best of Rajput architecture. Jag Niwas, the summer residence of the princes of Mewar, is today a magnificent luxury hotel. Jag Mandir, the other island palace, with a marble dome, is a marvel in red sandstone.

Pratap Memorial
The splendid monument is homage to Rana Pratap and his faithful warriors. There is also a Japanese rock garden in the vicinity that attracts tourists from every nook and corner of the world. Pratap Memorial also offers various other palaces of interest including Sajjan Garh, Gulab Bagh, Dudh Talai Park and the Sunset point.

Sahelion-ki-Bari (The Garden of Maids-of-honor)
Located on the shores of Fateh Sagar Lake, the splendid garden was built for the 48 young girls waiting to be sent to the royal house as part of dowry. Extensive lawns, fountains and shady walking lanes make it a special place to explore. In addition to this, there are four large pools with dainty kiosks and fountains with elephant trunks for spouts.

City Palace
Located on a hill, the white royal building of City Palace is surrounded by crenellated walls that make it totally invincible. The 'Bara Pol' or the 'great gate' leads to the first court, which joins Tripolia or the 'triple gate'. Between the two gates are eight carved 'toranas' or arches, which mark the spot where the rulers were weighed against gold or silver. The palace also houses several exquisitely carved courtyards, overlapping pavilions, terraces, corridors and hanging gardens.
