Sunset from Sajjangarh Fort Udaipur... Monsoon Palace...Udaipur from top in video

Sunset from Fatehsagar lake was something which was the most amazing thing happening to me till now in this trip. Never had seen that beautiful view which i saw there.

Sitting on Fateh sagar lake after the sunset one can see a building lighting up on top of the mountain, ask anybody and answer would come, its the monsoon palace , Sajjangarh Fort Udaipur.

Automatically it was added into my next day schedule but had to wait for it till the evening , my driver had told me watch sunset from their and you will forget Sunset of Fateh sagar Lake.

We left from the plains to the mountain at 5.30pm , at bottom of the mountain again had to buy ticket for entry where i felt inferior in front of my car, car parking was Rs 100 and for per person i had to pay only Rs 30 per person.

Going there was a nostalgic feeling , as i could remember my childhood days and was recalling Octopussy movie of James Bond which was shot in Udaipur and whose villian Kamal Khan used to live in Monsoon Palace , Sajjangarh fort Udaipur where i was going.

I had reached to the tallest mountain of the Udaipur , where this monsoon palace had been built. It was obvious why this palace is called Monsoon Palace. There was no rain in some days now but still i could feel the cool breeze , and it was obvious rain is surely going to touch this mountain maximum as this is the tallest mountain of Udaipur area , and its basic geography Rain clouds bless a place only when they are stopped by a tall guard or can say mountain.

Except the beautiful and magnificient view of Udaipur and these Langur's there was hardly anything else to see at this palace. For me it was nothing just a leisure palace for Kings at their times , one open bathroom with fountains and some 2-3 rooms there was nothing much to see in this fort , which was something very disappointing for me. But i was there for something else , Sunset view and that moment was now not that far.

Sun was going down and i was loving this moment , specially because of the reason i was busy with my camera and it was the best thing for me , till the sun went down i had clicked some 51 clicks of sun.

This shot is my favourite from all those 51 clicks, though i had some 5-6 near to same of this but posting all here wont do the justice to all.

Trust me , Sunset from Fateh Sagar Lake is still in the list of my best moments of life , and this too added in it but i would say both had their own unique place. Just loved the each moment i spent there watching sun going down and enjoying the cool breeze.
