A trip from Udaipur to Bundi

The easiest - certainly not the cheapest - way to travel between Udaipur and Bundi is by private taxi.  The road for a good portion of the way is on a new, divided lane highway (but which still means that you have cows & goats & people & carts crossing the road, and drivers on scooter, bikes, cars and trucks, driving the wrong way down the one way lanes....), but also has a 'rural' portion which is quite rough and bouncy and slow for a good part of the trip.  Anyway, there are interesting places (forts & temples etc) on the way, so the pictures below are from a stop at Chittogarh Fort about halfway.  The fort is a huge place, but unless you are REALLY into ruins....a half a day typically is enough.

On the way....somewhere.

One of the many views in the Fort.

Indian tourists seem to like to pay for this 'HiHo Silver' moment....not great fun for the horse.

Some of the trinket bottles for sale by wandering salesmen.

Lots of pilgrims come to the fort for visits to the temples inside.

'When can we go home???'


Dressed up in 'local dress' and posing for a photo with Mom & Dad.


Love some of the paintings on the trucks.

Not exactly overloaded, eh?
