Jag Mandir
17 people recommend, 1 warns against itvia r/udaipur, X, r/Rajasthan22 comments cited below
What people say, in short
Jag Mandir is recommended as an island-palace outing reached by boat on Lake Pichola, often around sunset. Several visitors enjoy the trip, but opinions on value differ: one recommends the City Palace boat only if visiting the island is the point, rather than merely wanting a lake ride. Allow time for the boat outing, and expect possible crowds. Reports about dining conflict: one mentions meals on the island, while another found the restaurant closed with nowhere to eat or sit. Do not plan around guaranteed food or seating.
