Lake Pichola

How should you treat the sun at Lake Pichola?

Quick answer

Lake Pichola, in Udaipur: the lake along the old palace edge, with the City Palace on the shore and islands in the water Winter is the postcard. Water depends on the monsoon behind you.

Detailed answer

Lake Pichola is in Udaipur district, in the Mewar part of Rajasthan. People usually combine it with Udaipur. It sits in a city you would already be staying in. The limit is time and heat, not a transfer.

Sun and heat, as a Mewar tendency: April heat builds in the city even if the ridge stays better. May is hot in Udaipur and Chittorgarh. Start early. Winter is the postcard. Water depends on the monsoon behind you. Shade and water matter more than another stop.
