Rana Mahal Ghat

Rana Mahal Ghat

'Surprisingly in 1670, this ghat was built by a 'Rajput Sardar', Maharana of Udaipur.'

 

A magnificent palatial building is to be witnessed on this ghat, constructed under the Rajputana's Rule (Udaipur, Rajasthan).With the passage of time, it was deteriorating undesirably, but then around 1730s, Rana Jagat Singh ordered its renovation. This river-front's major attraction is the temple of Vakratunda Vinayaka (Ganesha) on the palace's crown. Known to be a favourite amongst kids and elders alike for bathing and swimming activities.
