The Maharana was out hunting as he met a holy man when he mediating on a hill overlooking the Lake Pichola. The Hermit Blessed the Maharana and told him to built a Palace at that very spot as it would be protected. The Maharana followed his advise and Udaipur came in to being, overlooking the aquamarine waters of the lake Pichola stands the shimmering granite and marble lake palace, a harmonious blend of courtyards, Pavillions, terraces, corridors, rooms and hanging Gardens. Udaipur was last of the numerous Mewar capitals. It was in Udaipur that legendary Maharana Pratap was born. He was obsessed with Chittaur and the past glories of the Sisodia clan possessed his mind. Maharana Pratap left Udaipur to win back Chittaur from the Mughals. But he failed in his attempts and Udaipur remained the capital of Mewar till India got her independence. The memory of the failure of noble Pratap gives Udaipur its pervading mood of nostalgic wistfulness.
