- Connector126201240721 contributionThe only thing which annoyed us was a high ticket prices. They are already so rich but still can't pass on some benefits to the general crown. The visitors here are average middle class Indians who will go to many such places in order to see the rich history of the country but they end being looted by all these places. Same thing goes with sajjangarh palace. First u buy ticket for the palace then buy ticket for taxi. When we reached there it was not even properly maintained. There are no artefacts or historical things there but only some photographs of wild life. I mean we spent around a thousand for a family of four but there was nothingWritten 26 December 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Joanna SBurnley205 contributionsReally enjoyed our visit. The tickets are a nice keepsake and we spent time looking at all the beautiful cars and learning about their origins. It was starting to go dark when we arrived so the friendly, helpful staff turned all the lights on for each vehicle so we could see properly. Enough cars to keep children engaged and a good variety. We had a couple of drinks at the Garden Hotel restaurant afterwards. We spent about 30mins looking at the cars, but can get around quicker if neededWritten 16 January 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- fozjonJaipur, India1,973 contributionsthis is quite interesting. The price may have felt like a bit much in comparison with the price of the whole palace tour. There were far fewer visitors here then at the palace, we pretty much had the place to ourselves. There were some interesting items to view.Written 27 February 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Jess Snaas18 contributionsThis was without a doubt the loveliest experience we have had in all of Udaipur. I left the store with the biggest smile. We walked into the shop due to their fantastic display outside, they had exactly what we were looking for. The talent that Vimala and Shyam have is extraordinary. They are the most genuine and authentic creative couple. We loved having a chat with them and their energy was infectious. We will cherish our pieces and remember this lovely encounter. We wish them and their sons nothing but the best. An absolute recommendation to all!Written 20 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- annkurraColchester, UK2 contributionsNo holiday to Udaipur would be complete for me without a trip to Shyam Jethi’s little shop to look for a painting to take home, I have taken quite a few this year.
Shyam’s forfathers used to entertain at the Mewar court, ask him to tell you about this and he is sure to offer you chai. If he has time he may even take you to the City Palace Museum and show you the wonderful collection of miniatures on display there, Shyam is also a very knowledgeable tour guide as I discovered on my trip in January.
Throughout Covid lockdowns, when there were no tourists visiting Udaipur, Shyam has done his best to support some of the artists whose work he collects and sells in his shop, so that they could continue to paint and feed their families.
Be sure to go upstairs to see some of the artists’ best work. Some of the miniatures here are very like those I have seen at London’s famous Victoria and Albert Museum. Over his lifetime Shyam has collected different styles of work and he sells within a wide price range. He has an artist’s eye for a good painting, and will happily share his knowledge with you and tell you about the history of each picture, the artist who painted it and it’s symbolism – if you show that you are interested.
Udaipur has several other shops within a few hundred meters selling miniatures. Some show you how the colours and gold are ground up and applied. There are artists’ cooperatives selling directly to the public. In other shops you can, at certain times of day, sit and watch artists painting with tiny squirrel-hair brushes and brushes made from camels’ eyelashes. Go see them all, and then return to Ganesham Art & Craft with a better appreciation of the exceptional talents on display.
Directions:
Ganesham Art & Craft is near the Chandpole Bridge over lake Pichola.
Looking across from the Hide-In Udaipur hotel, you will see Shyam’s shop over the road to the right beneath Jethi Home stay.
