Udaipur: The Lake City

This is not the first time that I thought of traveling and made it, I have been to places, I have been on trips with friends but never traveled alone on a train for a long way.., neither did the idea scare me nor did i feel resistant to go solo and it had only one reason, the destiny...

 Yes, I do believe in dreams, fantasy and it is taking  me to the best of the things. Scheduled in an office system it’s hard to take a leave to live the actual life, but for me, the job is less of priority although that's the only income source of fun. My dream job is to get paid for travel love. If I get one, no one can stop me ever. This journey is meant to be awesome as I have started at 7:40pm on Sarai Rohilla station Delhi to Udaipur city in Chetak express, so lucky that I got to sleep even after I had only sitting reservation.

The family I exchanged seat with had a baby, they could not sleep on the upper berth and they were not aware that the seat they have taken was of two people and eventually they had to give both of their berths to us. Wearing my formal outfit I pushed myself to the upper berth and after a while, I slept off. I kept on checking my phone all through the night, if I were close to my destination or not, and at 6am I finally woke up and adjusted myself to the lower berth. Brushed my hairs and looked around where I was, because the train took 30 minutes at the Chittorgarh station, worriedly I was trying to ask everybody if I was about to reach or where I was(fact was not having any internet to find it out) finally I asked a lady( aunty how much it will take to reach Udaipur city?)and she apparently replied that it would be 1 and a half an hour. For me, it was easy to pass as Rajasthan can't let you live by yourself, I kept sneaking out of the train window, even the essence of railway stations was pleasing to the eyes the way it  kept cultures intact all these years looked like a whole kingdom stayed here in the Nerves of nature.

 As soon I reached Rana Pratap Nagar railway station at 8:00am, the temperature was cool and I could see the beauty of culture being replaced by development, but somewhere it stayed on. The Air of Udaipur is so fresh to breathe that you can't resist opening your arms. One of my friends picked me up from the station to take me to his place. He lives there, and I was jealous how he could have just been born in this heaven. Even after it was the peak of the morning, I didn't want to grab a bed to sleep but my curiosity to explore the whole of the city was what Udaipur poured into me.

 Before it could go any longer, we pulled the engines and reached to the Ambrai Ghat at around 9:00am. Sitting beside it, with all of the patience in the world and so close to the deep water, watching the waves flowing restlessly in a calm speed.

Thoughts, that always ran in my mind just melted away, we were here just to be in peace. And from here, we drove around the hills, it was so perfect. I was being reluctant to leave a place for another which is definitely a must to go for.  But the effect of the place was nonresistant When u stay close to nature it makes u feel better about you, like the way air caresses your hairs, you feel gorgeously beautiful and like the water touches your skin, it makes you feel how young you are. Positivity in the environment is so fully filled that one can imagine infinity in the arms of the hills here. Where ever you go for exploring the city, what you will adore at the end is the ever calm environment. Udaipur, The lake city is one of the best visits of my life, where in just a few hours, so much happened and the time passed, I suggest kiss if you want to hold it whole, and grab the most of anything offered to you by this beautiful city.

After sitting hours around the lake city, we realized, we are badly hungry and we had kachori and Poha. Their traditional food "It's a very normal shop, but serves you the best breakfast," he said. It was true. I loved the Poha. It wasn't over, next place was Badi Lake where I could see the best of the scenery of nature( a tree, still water, hills at the back.. And their shadows were being the cherry on the ice cream. So human of us, that we couldn't see something in so peace, we started throwing stones in the water as we used to play when we were kids Who can throw long? Make this stone jump many times in water in just one throw. 

I know it was crazy but who said we do normal stuff..

After an hour we were at Kundeshwar mandir, we drove in the hills and parked our car near to the temple.

With our favorite toy(camera) we were walking any forward and couldn't decide which is the favorite view, and ended clicking endless pictures and videos. Here was the waterfall I wanted to tell you about from the starting. The moment I saw it, I was unable to shut my mouth which was wide open in an expression of WOW. I was always wanted to take a bath in the waterfall. 

 I was just a step away from the flowing water, and I saw a dead crap. So damn scared that I started scanning the water and somehow made it just under the shower and after now I was pushing my friends into the waterfall "quoted" how you could hold yourself "This is amazing". For hours we were using every possible way to have all fun.

We had lunch after we took a bath in home shower. Slept for an hour and then drove to Karni Mata temple, from here you can scan the entire city through your naked eyes. Although we never like to walk on stairs, no not more than 1 floor. Here we crossed almost 15 floors without any pain or I would say in pleasure, distraction was the cold air and perfection in the picture being made.

In the evening of the same day, we went to Fateh Sagar Lake, to sit near the water and watch the beauty of kingdoms. Pleasure will be just a word to the complimenting rain dropping all around. This moment was so amazing to hold on, I wanted to talk my whole out, I started feeling like if I had an imaginary boyfriend. This is where you need someone to walk with, to tell all the stories and to make one. Dreams and wishes are started to take a much sharp shape now. Those quite faded fantasies were crystal clear in real time. I could not sleep that night as if I won a prize or I should realize my own that it's damn true. Well, slept after talking to a friend, endless real stupid stories. Woke up late next morning, and an another beautiful place was ready in the list. Sajjan Garh was my last visit of the whole trip after that I had to move back to my office schedule. So I wanted to live it all before time passes any long. 

It was raining in such a way that the beauty of the place was getting green. This religious place had nothing to do with worships and religion. What I found about this place is, you can sit here for hours, it has the direct connection to the spiritual power or god. The whole place was covered by clouds due to the weather and what strange was is that raindrops were not following gravity. I was able to see them coming to me like air flows horizontally. 

Did you ever feel so much pain in your cheeks and that is just because you could not stop smiling, I had. There is nothing touchier than being adored by nature. Loads of happiness of getting high in your standards of the wish-list is what I was feeling, No I am not exaggerating my feelings from my heart out, it is just I don't know how to express my emotions to anybody of what exactly this is called, I would rather give a word bigger than awesome. You try hard to just stop your thoughts for a time but beside a lake, tell me if your heart can spell anything out.  It's like Something from your soul screams that baby, life is worth living so live it here and forget the world. This place have much more wonder and to say" be yourself" and travel, for that you were born.  But for another comeback, I had to go.

As soon I was passing out of the city, I put my face out of the window to grab the freshness to my skin pores to the deep of my soul.
