Udaipur. What a perfect city to finish our roadtripping. This beautiful and calm city is also called the Venice of the East! Maybe I wouldn't underline that, though.. But it has it's own very special atmosphere with the Pichola lake, palaces, temples, nice hotels, boat rides. This city is famous for its artificially made lake, the largest one in the whole Asia.
Udaipur has been a kind of final test for our shopping skills. And I found us very good at it! We've become extremely good & convincing bargainers (or that is what we want to think) :).
Besides the shopping we've also enjoyed some massage, great rajastanian food... and what's the most important one - We took a cooking class! The course was great and inspired us to make a huge list of spices we wanted to carry with us back to Finland and Spain.. Eventually we did empty one whole shop of spices, and we got also a honourful mention from the shop keepers that we are the biggest indian-food lovers he has ever met :D (first they were wondering if we were running some kind of indian food business in Finland because buying so big amount!) Well.. now we have nothing else but spices in our luggages :D
Another important thing to mention is our hotel in Udaipur! I got the best christmas present ever > a luxury suite room with a awesome lake view! I just couldn't stop laughing hysterically (of happiness) when I saw the room. The room was so ROYAL and romantic! And we got our days as Maharanis and Maharaja.
Back in Delhi 4.1.09!
So, Christmas and New Year's Eve have now gone by and we are preparing ourselves and souvenirs for the trip back home..
