Dating in Udaipur: first dates and weekend trips

Updated · by the SwipeTrip team

Udaipur might be the most romantic city in India, with palaces reflected in lakes and the Aravalli hills all around. A first date can be a boat on Lake Pichola or a sunset from the Monsoon Palace, and the great forts and temples of Mewar are close enough for a first trip together.

  • Lake Pichola

    Old City

    Take a boat past the City Palace and the island palaces, ideally at sunset.

First-date tips for Udaipur

Udaipur is a tourist city as well as a home, so a little local knowledge goes a long way.

  • Go where locals go: Fateh Sagar's promenade and Moti Magri are calmer and more relaxed than the busiest ghats around Pichola.
  • Monsoon magic: When the lakes fill after the rains, the city is at its prettiest. August to October is a lovely time for dates.
  • Summer heat: April to June is hot. Plan boat rides and walks for the evening.
  • Keep it public: Meet in a busy, well-lit area, get yourself home and tell a friend your plan.
