THE RESORT

Nestled in the Aravali hills of Rajasthan, the 18th century Devi Garh
Fort Palace, in the village of Delwara lies on one the three main passes
defile that leads to Udaipur. Sajja Singh, who hailed from the
neighboring state of Gujarat, was awarded this strategically significant
principality, in recognition of his bravery and loyalty to Maharana
Pratap against the Mughal Emperor Akbar, at the battle of Haldighati
(1576). The actual construction of the fort palace started only in the
1760s, under Raghudev Singh II, with further additions being made to the
structure by the rulers who followed. However, today the doors of Devi
Garh has been opened to tourists who are looking for a heritage and
wellness holidays.
One of the most outstanding features of Devi Garh is its landscapes
design being 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 used 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 like any traditional dwelling revolves around courtyards,
five to be precise. Each courtyard blends classical and modern designs
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
