My trip to Rajasthan was going awesome , first destination of the trip Chapter Udaipur was coming to end. It was the last evening of mine in Udaipur and once again i was on Fateh Sagar Lake. Next morning i had to leave for Jodhpur so it was the time to bid adieu to Udaipur and tried to relive the moments.

Next morning i had left my home away from home Shree Vilas Orchid , Udaipur , and my car was on the way to Jodhpur. Udaipur to Jodhpur by car was going to tske some 6 hrs. I was unaware of the roads though i had some brief idea thanks to my experienced driver who has driven almost whole India.

I was on the four lane highway for some 1 hr and it was amazing. Lushgreen mountains , highway passing through the tunnels and in between the two mountains. Not at all for a single moment i was having a feeling that i was in Rajasthan , thanks to the just gone monsoon who made this way heavenly. Hardly any need of switching on the AC of car in Rajasthan is something which is unbelievable but i was driving without it and windows open enjoying the cool breeze.

After some time when we had left the four lane highway and had moved towards Jodhpur via Ranakpur i stopped for a cup of tea at a restaurant.
This valley was on the back of the restaurant , half restaurant leaning out in the valley , standing on the balcony clicking this picture of valley , i had never ever dreamt that i would such a beautiful valley traveling in Rajasthan ,this trip of Udaipur to Jodhpur was surprising me after every km and i was loving it.

Surprises were not over and what i would never ever think of dreaming was waiting for me ahead. Just some 10 Km before Ranakpur temple my driver suddenly slowed the car and told me to look left side , and i replied "stop stop stop" . A stream of water coming from nowhere was waiting for us. I have seen these type of scenes in my Manali trip but i had never expected that i would be enjoying this serene look here in Rajasthan as well.
We parked our car , and went downwards towards the waterfall. Sitting on a big stone , foots imersed in the water and enjoying the food, who would not have dreamt of this picture in their mind , and i was enjoying this moment. We sat there for an hour , though we had not planned for an hour but somehow we had to help a needy travellers whose car got punctured and they were not able to change their tyre, so i told my driver to help them.
We left from their, though we wanted to sit their some more but trip had to be completed and schedule had to be followed and Udaipur to Jodhpur trip was not yet completed , Jodhpur was still very far and reaching to the next destination was the need of the situation.
Great find. Even I have traveled to some real interiors of Rajasthan and was presently surprised to see greenery all around.
