A typical sunset in Udaipur! This is how to spend the evening - get a cocktail and a meal overlooking the lake as the sun goes down!
The Mewar Festival in the square outside the Jagdish temple in Udaipur. Lots of colour and noise! They take these decoreted doll-like statues of several Hindu Gods down to the river after this and put them in boats.
A very huge and lovely elephant that caused complete chaos downtown - he went for watermelons, caused traffic jams, and then got all scared and crushed the windscreen of a rickshaw! The driver was not impressed.
The really silly Lake Palace - now a hotel which you have to pay at least $600 a night to visit. And the set for Octopussy.
The even sillier City Palace - huge, twisting, complicated and completely over the top!
