Later you will be taken for an excursion tour visiting Haldhighati.
Haldhighati
Haldighati is an important historical site in the context of Rajasthan, India. Actually, Haldighati is a mountain pass in the Aravalli range connecting districts of Rajsamand and Pali in Rajasthan. The place is at a comfortable distance of 40 km from the city of Udaipur.
Haldighati extends as a thrilling tourist attraction that flares the merciless battlefield. A single thought of those courageous soldiers standing on the exact lands where they fought, send chills down one’s spine. Haldi Ghati captures major attention because the terra firma made the battlefield to the legend, Maharana Rana Pratap and his loyal horse, Chetak. The place gives a nostalgic feeling as this was the same place where Chetak, the heroic mount of Rana Pratap, breathed his last after leaving his master to a safe place.
At a distance of around 4 km from the battlefield, a cenotaph (chattri) is built in pure white marble. This cenotaph is dedicated to the gallant horse Chetak as a sign of respect and admiration. The bloody battle of Haldighati has been captured an inescapable place in the History of India. The battle has been known for ages in murals and ballads. In the words of Col. James Todd (a British author), Haldighati has been referred to as ‘Thermopile of Mewar’.
Close to this place, you can visit Balicha village that is famous for its terracotta crafts. Badshahi Bagh is another place that is renowned for ‘Chaitri-Gulab’. Here you can find original rose water and ‘Gulkand’ (Jam made from Rose petals) that has immense medicinal value and really tastes good. Thus, Haldighati is a place of interest for the people who value history and respect the heroes of India for their priceless efforts.
Later in the evening drive back to Udaipur.
