Taj Lake Palace Udaipur

Taj Lake Palace, Udaipur is one of the most famous ultra-luxury heritage hotels in the world. Built in 1746 by Maharana Jagat Singh II as a summer palace (Jag Niwas), this breathtaking white marble marvel sits completely afloat on a 4-acre island in the center of Lake Pichola. Revered globally for its unparalleled royal hospitality and iconic cinematic history (famously featured in the James Bond movie Octopussy), the palace is accessible exclusively via private hotel speedboats departing from the mainland jetty.
