A taxi eases through Udaipur’s narrow lanes and drops the visitor at the high steps of City Palace, where stone and mirrorwork meet the first light. The city breathes around two lakes — Pichola and Fateh Sagar — their surfaces catching palace facades and ferry wakes, while the Monsoon Palace perches above, watching seasonal skies.
