Lake Palace, Palace hotel in Udaipur, India.

The Lake Palace stands on Jag Niwas island in Lake Pichola, featuring white marble walls, gardens, fountains, and 83 luxurious rooms and suites.

Maharana Jagat Singh II commissioned the construction of this winter palace between 1743 and 1746, originally naming it Jag Niwas after himself.

The palace incorporates Rajasthani architectural elements with marble structures, ornate columns, decorated courtyards, and traditional gardens following Mewar design principles.

The property functions as a luxury hotel managed by Taj Hotels since 1971, offering accommodations in different room categories, from luxury rooms to royal suites.

During the 1857 Indian Rebellion, Maharana Swaroop Singh destroyed all city boats to protect European families who sought refuge in this island palace.
