(Garden Of The Maids Of Honour)
Saheliyon-ki-Bari or the 'Garden of the Maids of Honour', so called because
the royal ladies came here for a stroll, is a well laid out garden, with
extensive lawns and shady walks. With flowerbeds lined along the picturesque
park, this small garden is located on the lakeside of the second major lake
of Udaipur - Fateh Sagar Lake.

The garden was constructed for forty-eight young ladies-in-waiting sent to
the royal house, as part of the dowry. This small ornamental garden was a
popular relaxing spot where royal ladies came for a stroll. The garden has
many fountains in its four delightful pools, sculpted kiosks and marble
elephants Its manicured lawns display a marvellous range of bougan villea
and five fountains release showers in tune with their titles namely,
'Welcome'; 'Raining Cats and Dogs'; 'Rains in Midnight', 'Rains without
Clouds'; 'Gentle Shower in Mid Day'.
The garden is open from 9 AM to 6 PM daily. The charge for turning on the
water fountains is a very minimal amount of Rs.2.
