Udaipur is known to be a city of Lakes and it certainly is. It means it is a much more open city and it certainly is very beautiful. Lake Pichola tends to be the one that gets all the mentions - and it is the one that is in the middle of the old city.... however Fateh Sagar also gets my vote as a special place.
For my time in Udaipur I have been only 5 minutes away from this lake - and whenever I walked into the old city, it was past this one first. As well as some interesting (but obscure) environmental art...
It also is fantastic for the wealth of birdlife - much of which was completely new to me... red wattled lapwing...
These were very common... I must have seen them every day... Black winged stilt....
with totally ridiculously long legs...also seen very commonly. The lake also had its own amazing buildings in the middle..... quite a location...
And you can never have too many sunset shots....
and this one - a favourite because it shows Filadelfia campus - which gave me a home for my time in Udaipur...
So if ever you are in Udaipur - spare a thought for Fateh Sagar.
