This Monsoon palace offers one of the best sunset views over Udaipur. You need to stop and purchase entry tickets at the bottom of the hill and proceed by vehicle up an incredible zig zagging mountain road ( preferably by two or four wheel vehicle!). TAKE CASH to pay for your entry as payment options do not include international cards. The palace itself is not in tip top condition but the views back over the city and westwards over the Aravali range are breathtaking. Well worth the ticket price and trip and would highly recommend this is part of your itinerary. Watch out for cheeky monkeys grabbing food around the car park area. Toilet facilities are terrible for such a prominent tourist site. There are lots of restaurant options around the entrance to the Monsoon palace and one restaurant at the palace itself which we did not try.

The fort was built in 1884 AD by Maharana Sajjan Singh to enjoy the Monsoons and hence also known as Monsoon Palace. Now it comes under forest department. Entry Ticket is 155 bucks and extra 106 bucks for the Jeep in case you don’t have personal vehicle. This fort is ideal to witness scenic sunsets and panoramic views of the city.

The views of the surrounding areas should be great from this place but the day we visited it was was quite hazy. The palace itself does not offer much and is quite underwhelming. The main attraction is the view. The garden also provides bit of a breathing space if one can avoid the selfie crowd. There is a restaurant at the entrance of the palace but we didn't try their food. The entry fee is INR 300 per car and INR 155 per person if you are Indian. We saw a number of gray langurs roaming around the garden but they did not disturb the tourists. Can not call it a must visit place but we found it quite nice.

Will rate Mysore Palace in the top followed by this palace. A guide is a must to go through the entire palace, will take two hours to complete the entire palace trip. The best palace amoung the various places in Udaipur.

Total waste of time. Being in Udaipur have heard lots about this palace and decided to visit it today. Nothing fancy about this palace, not looked after well property. Except for views of city from top, nothing great about this place. All hype but no substance.

Lovely palace on top of the mountain about 30 mins from the city by car. Fabulous views of the lakes, palaces, city and the surrounding mountains. There isn't too much to see in the palace inside but worth visiting just for the views of Udaipur from there.

This ‘palace’ is a bit of an old ruin but still interesting to see - it was built for the royal family but decommissioned straight away as they couldn’t pump water up there. The most impressive things are the views of the city, and the lovely sunset view you get. Worth a trip up. It does cost you for entry for your taxi / car to drive you up - ₹ 300. But although that seems steep, it’s a lovely way to spend an hour or so in the evening.

The view from the top is marvellous. I am glad I went. The ticketing is confusing and I think it’s quite pricy. You have to get an approved vehicle up about 109rps Lovely windy rd great views. I couldn’t work out how to get down without spending 500rps on a taxi. The palace isn’t very exciting. But the views are really breathtaking. It’s easy to get stressy about the taxi and price but if you are a foreign tourist getting muddled about the transport only cost me an extra £5 so not really much to moan about. There is a busy cafe at the top.

We had gone to see the Sangrah Fort. We liked it the most. The whole city is visible from here. It was a very good experience. You can also buy something from here or you can bring something to eat in advance or you will get tea, coffee and sandwiches here as well.

An great place to be specifically in monsoon . One can see and guess the monsoon status from the roof top balcony.. Wildlife awareness is added for the great zing. Good for knowledge of all. Caution: lots of Langurs so be careful as soon as you park your vehicle. They are not inside the palace at all.
