Narlai

A convenient base for visiting nearby Ranakpur and Kumbhalgarh

Narlai is a small village midway between Jodhpur and Udaipur, overlooking a gigantic 350-foot single rock of granite, dotted with caves and temples.

The village has a beautifully restored 17th century hunting lodge. The small haveli lies cozily within fortress-like walls and the white-washed terraces offer views of the hill with its dramatic huge granite boulder.
