The Crystal Gallery houses a rare collection of crystals that Maharana Sajjan Singh ordered from F&C Osler & Co in England in 1877. The Maharana died before the collection arrived, and all the items stayed forgotten and packed up in boxes for 110 years. They were put on public display in 1994.
The royal collection includes a number of objets d’art, dinner sets, perfume bottles, decanters, glasses, washing bowls and even furniture. There is a priceless Flora Danica dinner service that bears the royal insignia of the House of Mewar. Of the original Flora Danica service pieces delivered in 1803, 1,530 survive to the present day.

This is one of the hotels where the James Bond film, Octopussy, was shot. Originally built in 1743 by Maharana Jagat Singh II, the palace was restored and converted into a hotel in 1963.
Catch a glimpse of the Jag Mandir Palace that is situated on an island of the same name. The Palace also known as the ‘Lake Garden Palace’ has an imposing entrance flanked by sculptures of eight elephants.
After the boat ride, you will be driven back to your hotel.
