In the City of Romance!! (Explored)
Well, what can I say about this place. We went to the lovely town of Udaipur, which is also called the "city of lakes" and I could not take my eyes off this place.
This is a shot of the City Palace from across the Lake Pichola. I patiently waited for the blue hour and set this shot on the tripod. We (my wife and I) are posing here as admirers of this majestic structure right across the lake, in one of the most romantic settings we've seen. I was in LOVE!!
This is another MUST visit for anybody travelling to India.
