Rajasthan, the combination of two Hindi words (1) King (2) Place, means Place of Kings. Before becoming Rajasthan, it was scattered in many small states ruled by different kings of their time. All these states were united by Mewar's Rana's and turned it into a whole big state of India as Rajputana (Rajasthan).

B. Nathdwara:

        Nathdwara is located in the Aravalli hills, on the banks of the Banas river in the rajsamand district, 48 kilometres north-east of Udaipur. This town is famous for its temple of Krishna which houses the idol of Shrinathji, a 14th-century, 7-year-old "infant" incarnation of Krishna. The idol was originally worshipped at JATIPURA Mathura and was shifted in the 1672 from Govardhan hill, near Mathura along holy river Yamuna after being retained at Agra for almost six months, in order to protect it from anti-Hindu fanatic iconoclastic Islamic policies of Mughal ruler Aurangzeb’s. Literally, Nathdwara means ‘Gateway to Shrinathji’. Nathdwara is a significant Vaishnavite shrine pertaining to the Pushti Marg or the Vallabh Sampradaya or the Shuddha Advaita founded by Vallabha Acharya, revered mainly by people of Gujarat and Rajasthan, among others. Vitthal Nathji, son of Vallabhacharya institutionalised the worship of Shrinathji at Nathdwara. Nathdwara town itself is popularly referred to as ‘Shrinathji’, after the presiding deity.

Shrinathji Temple:

As per the religious beliefs, the shrine at Nathdwara was built in the 17th century at the spot as exactly ordained by Shrinathji himself. The idol of the Lord Krishna was being transferred to a safer place from Vrindaban to protect it from the anti-Hindu, iconoclastic and barbarian destruction of the Mughal ruler Aurangzeb. When the idol reached the spot at village Sihad or Sinhad, the wheels of bullock cart in which the idol was being transported sank axle-deep in mud and could not be moved any farther. The accompanying priests realised that the particular place was the Lord's chosen spot and accordingly, a temple was built there under the rule and protection of the then Maharana Raj Singh of Mewar. Shrinathji Temple is also known as 'Haveli of Shrinathji’ (mansion).

Udaipur:
                   Udaipur was established by Rana Udai Singh (Father of Maharana Pratap Singh) for residential purpose between the mountains due to its natural greenery. Udaipur is also known as Lake City, because there are so many lakes in the circumference of Udaipur. It is surrounded by mountains from all sides. Calm and Green City of the state. It was the beautiful city of the state and still bears the crown of beautiful city in the state as well as in the country. It has remained the first visiting point for the visitors from long time, and it is also said that if you are going to visit rajasthan/india, then do visit Udaipur, the city of lakes. Few of prides of the city are mentioned below as per my knowledge which i explored in last three years of my stay in the city.

• Lake Pichhola:
• Made by a Banjara in the time of Rana udai Singh, when Udai Singh established Udaipur City. Lake was made by stopping the mountain water for common men's use. This is further attached with Fateh Sagar Lake and its surrounded by all royal palaces, hotels and sunset point from two sides and by mountains and open space from other two sides. You can enjoy Motor Boat riding in this lake, Jag Mandir (well known and very famous royal heritage resort) is in middle of Lake Pichhola. Hotel Lake Palace is also in middle of this Lake.

Later, he was joined by Dr. Ashok Ambastha in 1983 and subsequently by many others at different stages who have continued further contributing to its development. The observatory is having best environmental conditions for research and development on planets as sounds and heat rays are absorbed by water surrounded it.

• City Palace:
• The city Palace was built concurrently with establishment of the Udaipur city by Maharana Uday Singh, in 1559 and his successor Maharana's over a period of the next 300 years. It is considered the largest royal complex in Rajasthan and is replete with history. 
• Founding of the city and building of the palace complex can not be looked in isolation as the Maharana's lived and administered their kingdom from this palace at his capital Udaipur, Maharana Uday Singh soon faced defeat at the hands of Mughal Emperor Akbar. He soon moved to Udaipur to the chosen location to establish his new capital. The earliest royal structure he built here was the Royal courtyard or 'Rai Angan', which was the beginning of the building of the City Palace complex, at the place where the hermit had advised Maharana to build his Capital.
  
  
  
• Sajjangarh Fort) also known as Mansoon Palace:
• It used to be the Residence palace for the ruler family when they shifted from Chittorgarh to Udaipur. It over looks the Fateh Sagar Lake.

The palace offers a panoramic view of the city's lakes, palaces and surrounding countryside.
• It was built basically to watch the monsoon clouds; hence, appropriately, it is popularly known as Monsoon Palace also.

• Haldi Ghati:
• This War field of Maharana Pratap and Mugal Badshah Akbar's Army lies in Khamnor ki Ghati. Bettle field became totally red and in yellow after gwtting dry like turmeric with the blood of sluttered Soldiers. Its name turned to Haldi Ghati.
  
  History: On June 21, 1576 (or June 18 in other calculations), the armies of Pratap and Akbar (led by Syed Hashim) met at Haldighati, near the town of Gogunda. Pratap's army had a contingent of Afghan warriors led by his commander, Hakim Khan Sur.Hakim Khan Suri (also known as Hakim Soz Khan Afghan) was an Afghan warrior and chief of artillery in Rana Pratap's army. He fought valorously with him in the Battle of Haldighati and died in 1576. A small army of the Bhils, whom the Rana had befriended, also joined the battle against the Mughals. On the other hand, the Mughal forces led by Syed Hashim boasted of numerical superiority, which vastly outnumbered the Rajputs. 
  Pratap was riding his trusted horse, Chetak (चेतक), which despite being seriously wounded and utterly exhausted, carried his master till about 2 miles away from the battle, eventually succumbing to its injuries while jumping a nallah (stream). It is said, that Pratap's younger brother Shakti Singh, who until then was fighting on behalf of the Mughal army, followed Pratap until this point, and upon a change of heart, gave him his own horse to escape away because in childhood, Pratap saved shakti singh from MrityuDand/Life Penalty which was given by Rana Udaisingh, the father of Shakti Singh and Pratap Singh itself for misbehaving and not answering valid reasons for doing misbehave.
  The other lesser-known heroes of Haldighati were the Bhil Adivasis of the Aravallis, whose valour, knowledge of terrain and intensive arrow showers made the battle far from one-sided. In recognition of their extraordinary contribution to Rajputana and to protecting these lands, a Bhil stands alongside a Rajput on either side of the Royal Coat of Arms of Mewar. 
  
  The battle of Haldighati has commanded a lasting presence in Rajasthani folklore, and the persona of Pratap Singh, is celebrated in a folk song “O Neele Ghode raa Aswaar”(O Rider of the Blue Horse)
