Udaipur boasts a captivating royal heritage that dates back centuries. Founded by Maharana Udai Singh II in 1559, the city served as the capital of the Mewar Kingdom for centuries. Its legacy is kept alive through the magnificent City Palace, a sprawling complex of palaces, courtyards, and museums that showcases the opulent lifestyle of the Mewar rulers. City Palace is not just a relic of the past; it remains a living monument as the current Maharana of Udaipur, Shriji Arvind Singh Mewar, still resides in a portion of the palace. Visitors can explore the opulent rooms, intricate architecture, and art collections that provide a glimpse into the grandeur of the Mewar dynasty.
