    Wonderful and serene lake. It’s an artificial lake created to end the crisis of water during summer. Lakes in Udaipur are inter connected. Boat riding is must although the rate is little bit on the higher side. Upto 2 pm it’s Rs 500 for adults and 250 for children upto 12. After 2 pm, it’s 850 for adults and 450 for children. The motor boat ride is for one hour. At first they circle the lake for 15 mins, then they take you to Jag mandir and you can spend about half an hour there and come back with any boat showing your ticket from another ghat within Jag mandir. Your boat will not wait for you.

    True to its title, the City of Lakes - Udaipur is surrounded by a number of lakes mesmerising its visitors with its blue waters and scenic views. One such artificial lake that sits right in the middle of Udaipur city is Lake Pichola, built in the year of 1362 AD. Named after the nearby village Picholi, Lake Pichola is one of the most famous tourist attractions in Udaipur. Flanked by islands, palaces, temples, mansions, ghats and restaurants, Lake Pichola offers something for everyone. The enchanting views of sunrise and sunset from the lake is something that should not be missed by anyone visiting the lake. With dimensions of 3 miles in length, 2 miles in width and a depth of 30 feet, Lake Pichola has four main islands namely Jag Niwas, Jag Mandir, Mohan Mandir and Arsi Vilas.

    Pichola lake is the main attraction of Udaipur city. The Lake Pichola is an artificial lake located in the heart of Udaipur, Rajasthan. The oldest and one of the largest lakes of the city. Backgrounded with green hills, heritage buildings and bathing ghats, its a beautiful attraction for all nature lovers. A visit to the Lake Pichola is incomplete without a boat ride, especially in the evening. During evenings, it seems the entire place has been dipped in gold as you can see the heritage buildings and the pristine water turning golden with the sun's reflection. The amazing views will take you to a different world. Have a great time in Udaipur.. Good luck..

    Lake Pichola is a place that should should qualify as a wonder of the world. One the best picturesque, remarkable place. While on boat ride on the lake not only one will see beautiful surroundings but also the history and culture of Udaipur and the Royal Family. I am short of words to describe it s beauty furthermore.

    What a Big lake! This was my 2nd big lake I have seen in India which having Taj resort in middle of the lake and surrounding with other poupler 5 star rating property of residence. One side of the lake is coverd by city place one can enjoy best view there. Freely one can visit the place near coty palace and ghanghor ghat. No boating available at this place. Please enjoy rooftop resturants food at night to enjoy view of lake and lights of udaipur city. Too many availables with budget rate food.

    Lake Pichola in Udaipur is a serene and picturesque destination. The lake's sparkling waters and surrounding hills create a mesmerizing setting. It is best experienced by taking a boat ride and admiring the beautiful palaces and havelis that line its shores, including the famous Lake Palace and Jag Mandir. The calm atmosphere and stunning views make it an ideal spot for relaxation and capturing memorable photographs. However, the lake can get crowded during peak tourist season, so it's advisable to visit early in the morning or during weekdays for a more peaceful experience. Lake Pichola is a must-visit for its natural beauty and its association with Udaipur's royal history.

    Amazing views and memorable experience. The boat ride and ropeway ride are just good to enjoy. There are many activities on top after reaching the top with ropeway. Like aquarium visit, virtual games, restaurants, massage therapy, fish foot spa, fire pan, chat cone etc. There is also a photo service with Traditional costume. There is Karnimata temple and a Dargah up there. The view from the cable car cabin is quite nice. Ride is for 4 to 5 minutes. As only 3 cabins move up and down there may be a waiting time for 30 minutes on rush days. Boat ride takes you to Jagmandir. We felt these were a must feel experience when in Udaipur. We visited the place just a day before a bollywood actresses wedding but there was no problem at all.

    Undoubtedly the most buzzing place in Udaipur. It is the lifeline and star of Udaipur tourism circuit. Lake Pichola is a serene and picturesque. The surrounding hills create a mesmerizing setup for creating a luxurious and romantic destination. Almost all activities and important tourist spots, activities and royal resorts are centered around this lake. Evenings are always beautiful here.

  • 5/5 Sharan S. 9 months ago on Google
    Lake pichola is one of the must-visit destinations for tourists, as it really justifies Udiapur as the lake city. This lake offers beautiful sunrises and sunsets, and the Taj Lake Palace, which is present at the centre of the lake, gives even more scenic views. Boating at these places is really recommended in the evening, as you can enjoy the sunset while boating. The cost of boating is around 200-450 rupees per person, depending on the boat you choose. I would recommend visiting this place during the weekdays as it is very crowded on the weekends.

    Udaipur is known as lake city because of the huge lake in middle of Udaipur. Very huge lake with natural view around. Boating facility is available there. The way to reach there is very narrow and busy all the time. Chargeable parking is available about 500m far from the lake.

    Lake Pichola, situated in Udaipur city in the Indian state of Rajasthan, is an artificial fresh water lake, created in the year 1362 AD, named after the nearby Picholi village.It is one of the several contiguous lakes, and developed over the last few centuries in and around the famous Udaipur city. The lakes around Udaipur were primarily created by building dams to meet the drinking water and irrigation needs of the city and its neighborhood. Two islands, Jag Niwas and Jag Mandir are located within Pichola Lake, and have been developed with several palaces to provide views of the lake.

    Udaipur’s raining weather during the monsoon season offers a unique experience, showcasing the city’s natural beauty in a different light. It’s a great time to witness the rejuvenation of the surroundings and enjoy the tranquility that comes with the rain.

    If you want to feel the authenticity of that city “Udaipur”, there are some places you can visit Lake Pichola is one of them, you will get many vendor offering you food, ask to click pictures in traditional dresses, wear safa to give a local feel to the outsiders It was awesome experience sitting at the lake pichola and see the sunset while having tea with friends or family

    This is a must-see place when you are in Udaipur. The place is beautiful no doubt with a great view of all the luxurious hotels. We were at Gangaur ghat on lake Pichhola at Sunset.It was a calm and serene experience watching the birds going home at the end of the day. Must experience dinner at lakeside. Lake Pichola makes Udaipur a unique destination in the middle of a desert state Rajasthan. Must watch sunset 🌅.

    The lake is beautiful. Boating is also available in the lake. But it's mostly crowded due to many attractions near it like city palace and other. The roads to reach there is not big so sometimes you stuck in heavy traffic especially on weekends. But all the problems are nothing infront of the view of lake. So must visit place if you are visiting udaipur.
