"A central, scenic lake whose calm waters and shoreline vistas are framed by surrounding hills; the lake provides dramatic lake-and-mountain views that define much of the locale’s romantic scenery and help anchor the region’s nickname as a hub of interconnected lakes." - Lila Harron Battis

Lake Pichola is one of the most beautiful lake in Udaipur. The view of the lake surrounded by palaces and old buildings is simply mesmerizing, especially during sunset. The calm water and peaceful atmosphere make it a perfect place to relax and click pictures.
The boat ride here is totally worth it - around 15–20 minutes long, giving you a closer look at the City Palace, Lake Palace, and Jag Mandir. The reflections of lights on the lake in the evening are magical. A must-visit spot for anyone exploring Udaipur.

Lake Pichola is the heart of Udaipur — calm, romantic, and absolutely stunning! The sunset boat ride is a must-do experience, offering breathtaking views of City Palace, Jag Mandir, and the shimmering lake waters. The reflections at dusk make it feel like a dream. Truly the soul of the “City of Lakes”! 💙✨

It’s a very scenic and beautiful lake in Udaipur. One of the must visit places. It is near gangaur ghat and Karni Mata temple. You can also do boating but the cost is 800/- per person. It is near city palace for which the entry is too costly which is not worth it. You can come here to relax but avoid the boat ride and the palace visit, you’re not missing much. It can get crowded during the season. There are multiple shops nearby and chats also. Very peaceful at nights.
