Located 28 Km northeast of Udaipur, Devi Garh is a convenient and scenic 45 minute drive from the city.
The 18th century Devi Garh palace is surrounded by lush green fields and mountains on three sides, overlooks the village of Delwara, and is close to the temples of Eklingji and Nagda.
One of the most outstanding features of Devi Garh is its landscape design done in a modern and contemporary manner. Using traditional materials and motifs, contemporary designs have been created which embody the confluence between the old and the new. The raw materials used are all local, with white marble utilised extensively throughout the palace.
The two 12 feet high standing blocks of uncut white marble at the entrance are symbolic representations of the stone in its purest form.
Devi Garh, much like any traditional dwelling, revolves around courtyards; five to be precise. Each courtyard blends classical and modern design to achieve a fusion, which is peaceful yet intriguing. The Kamal Court, is an interesting interpretation of the traditional lotus motif as a black marble water maze.
The scenic beauty of the surrounding Aravali hills can be enjoyed on a trek, bicycle ride, camel or horse safari. For those who wish to relax there are spa facilities available.
A trip to the village of Delwara and the nearby 14th century Jain temples, or to the picturesque city of Udaipur with its lakes and palaces can be arranged. Besides shopping in the bazaars of Udaipur you can find some exclusively designed Indian products at the Devi Shop.
The Devi Garh suite shares a black marble swimming pool, and has its own private sun deck with jacuzzi. There are 5 Aravali Suites which are very spacious with great views and overlooking a black marble courtyard. 16 Palace suites lead off from a traditional courtyard of contemporary design. The 17 Garden suites have private lobby, garden and tented terrace.
