His equally famous horse,
Chetak's battle armour has an unusual feature - a
fake elephant trunk. This was designed so that in
battle the enemy horses would mistake it for an
elephant and get intimidated by it, while the enemy
elephants would hesitate to attack a baby elephant.
From the City Palace, we visited the
Jagdish Temple
with its impressive archway and after lunch we saw
Lake Fateh Sagar
before taking a stroll at the
Pratap Smarak.
It's a lovely park on a hill with Maharana Pratap's
imposing black statue on top and offers a lovely
view. Next stop was the beautiful garden
Saheliyon ki Bari
with its lotus pools and delicate marble cupolas and
fountains. |
