SO I PLANNED A TRIP TO UDAIPUR....
So, I planned a trip to Udaipur
and was there for 2 days and 3 nights. I had already been to some tourist
places viz. Rishikesh, Haridwar, Kasol, Kheerganga etc. But after this trip I
am completely spellbound by the beauty of Udaipur. In that duration, we hired
two bikes and apart from me, there were 4 others to give me company. One of
them is currently studying In RNT medical college, Udaipur. So, we had an upper
hand unlike other trips as he knew the city way better than us and may be even
better than Google.
Why Udaipur? Wanted to go someplace not so monotonous cold..And needed to keep check on my wallet as well.Another thing I kept in my mind when I planned this trip was that I wanted to see and enjoy natural beauty and adventures.
So, I am gonna write about the
places we went, the mesmerizing journey and the people.
Day 1-
We arrived Udaipur around 9’O
clock, about an hour later than the scheduled time. We started our day with
lunch at Shiv Shakti Restaurant & had a good lunch in every aspect. From
there we started to explore Udaipur on our bikes. Our first stop was an Open Gym situated on the bank of Pichola Lake. This was a beautiful spot with some Gym
apparatus installed. After that we drove our bikes to The
Celebrations Mall. As I
currently live in Noida, I can say I have seen the best of Malls but believe me
the way this Mall is designed is brilliant. You can see the Rajwada’s flavor
added in the infrastructure. After spending some time in mall, we moved to Nathdwara Mandir. What’s new about this is the road by
which it is connected. A tunnel is built through
the mountains and has its own contributions when it comes to visuals. The same
tunnel is on the backside of classmate notebooks
nowadays. Other noticeable places to visit are Saheli
ki baadi, Sukhadiya Circle and Fateh sagar lake. Fateh sagar
lake puts forward equal values and visuals to the visitors as much as the
Marine drive in Mumbai does. Last spot for the day was Karnimata
Mandir also known as sunset point among the locals. There are two
monocable ropeways that connect ground to the top. You can have a beautiful
view from the top as well can see the beauty of Pichola
Lake. Tourists can also have fun of boating in Pichola
Lake.
Conclusion-: Day-1 was more beautiful
than expected, obviously not very adventurous but soothing in a peaceful way.
Around 80 kms of biking in the whole day and dinner of Dal Baati at Annapurna
Dhabha brought the day to a closure.
Day-2
We woke up at 6:30 in the morning
as we have to go to Badi lake. Leaving the rooms
at 7:30 we took the road to Badi Lake, stopping
by for a few minutes to have tea. We stayed for about one hour at the lake. It
being a Sunday, many localites were there for breakfast, students for picnic
and the scenery was way more beautiful than expected. We took some beautiful
photographs and headed back to our rooms. On the way back, we stopped by a
beautiful fountain. We had our breakfast and got ready by 11:00 to leave for
Sajjangarh. Sajjangarh fort is at quite a height from ground level. Roads to
fort are quite steep with sharp turns. On the way up to fort you might feel
fear, a rush of adrenaline and blood through your veins. We spent around two
and a half hours there and took some photographs. When you are at such heights,
you find the view so beautiful that you want to capture the scenery in your
memories forever. On the way down we stopped for few photographs of sceneries.
From there, we straightaway moved to the Wax Museum. The museum was okay. We had
lunch and then rode our bikes on the way to Ubeshwar Temple.
What’s really beautiful about Udaipur is either there are lakes at ground level
or there are mountains at heights. Same was the case of Ubeshwar Temple. We
stayed there till evening, enjoyed the view from heights. At the end of the day,
we had our dinner at Udaipur-Ahmedabad highway.
Conclusion:- Day-2 was way more
beautiful as well as adventurous. Around 150 kms of biking for the day was more
than enough to sleep tight.
Day-3
We woke up relatively late at
9:00 am as we drove last night till 3:00 out in the cold. WOOHOOOO. This was a
totally different feeling. This was my first night out after my college life.
We left our rooms by 10:00 am for Haldighati. It took us around 2 hours to
reach there. The scene was equally beautiful as the journey was. We paid a
visit to City museum also. Well as you all know almost all the museums are same,
we were least interested in the museums. So, we had a quick view and then went
for camel ride. We left from there around 2:00 pm as we had to catch our train
by 6:00 pm. By 4:00 pm we were in our rooms, packed our bags by 4:30 pm and
left the hotel by 5:00 pm.
Conclusion:- Day-3 was full of memories.
Around 120 kms of biking in 5 hours & such beautiful visuals were a
thrilling experience.
