"Of all the places he had visited in India, Sir Hugh liked Udaipur and Fathepur Sikri most. Udaipur, he thought, combined real beauty with historical associations of a great and glorious past. The city stands in a valley, amid hills on the banks of a wide lake of steel-blue waters with tiny islands. On these islands rise from the waterโs edge palaces of pure white marble which glisten in sunlight"
- Sir Hugh Cesson,, a leading Professor of Interior Designing in the Royal College of Art, London
