Most
cities
in
Rajasthan
have
a
central
clock
tower
with
a
market
surrounding
it
from
all
sides,
and
Udaipur
is
no
less.
Antique
jewellery
in
silver,
kundan,
gold
etc
is
found
here
in
tiny
stall-like
shops.
Idols
of
various
Gods
and
Goddesses
are
the
most
sold
item
from
here.
You
might
find
just
about
everything
here
only
if
you
are
willing
to
spend
hours
looking.
Tip:
Don’t
forget
to
hog
on
some
local
sweets
while
shopping
here;
takes
the
whole
experience
up
a
notch.
The
Clock
Tower
area
is
known
for
its
towering
clock
tower
which
was
constructed
more
than
100
years
ago
as
a
souvenir
to
the
then
Royal
Family
of
Mewar
and
stands
tall
in
the
history
of
the
City
of
Lakes.
While
trying
to
learn
more
on
the
history
of
Ghanta
Ghar,
we
met
Prem
Singh,
owner
of
Krishna
Watch
Service,
who
was
entrusted
with
the
care
of
the
Clock
Tower
from
1987-2010.
According
to
him
the
Clock
Tower
was
constructed
in
the
year
1888.
The
well-known
jewelry
market
of
Udaipur
at
Ghanta
Ghar
(Clock
Tower)
is
not
only
home
to
hundreds
of
traditional
jewelers
and
ornament
craftsmen
but
is
also
an
entry
and
exit
point
to
some
of
the
prime
tourist
locations
of
Udaipur,
including
The
City
Palace.
