Jag Mandir Tour Udaipur
 Lake Pichola is home to
another famous island, the Jag Mandir Island which lies on its
southern edge. The Jag Mandir Palace is a marvellous place to
spend some beautiful moments. It is also heartening to note
that the architecture of the world famous Taj Mahal draws a
bit of its inspiration from the pietra dura work of this
island palace. A sunrise and the sunset view is the ultimate
sight to enjoy from the Jag Mandir Island.
 The Jag Mandir Palace is a three stored structure built of
yellow sandstone and marble slabs. The Gul Mahal is the prime
attraction of this island palace since this is the place where
prince Khurram stayed.Eight lifesize white marble elephants
facing towards the Lake Palace are another highlight of the
Jag Mandir Palace.
Other eye catching beauties in the palace is the courtyard
decorated with black and white tiles, gardens with lovely
roses, palm trees, jasmine bushes, frangipanni trees and
bougainvillea, Bara Patharon ka Mahal built of twelve solid
marble slabs, Kunwar Pada ka Mahal or the palace of Crown
prince and the Zenana chambers. There is also the Darikhana
Restaurant which was opened by Arvind Singh Mewar in the year
2001 to host lavish parties.
