Udaipur : Vintage Collection of Classic Cars Museum
Operating Hours:Monday - Sunday: 09:00 - 17:00
The Vibe:The garage the maharanas actually drove out of.
Housed in the former Mewar State Motor Garage opposite Gulab Bagh, this collection keeps the cars the royal household actually used. The original art deco petrol pump still stands in the forecourt.
A quiet, hangar-like space with polished chrome under even light and little else competing for attention. Engine oil and old leather carry faintly across the floor.
- Set in the original Mewar State Motor Garage rather than a purpose-built museum
- Includes Rolls-Royce, Cadillac and Chevrolet vehicles used by the royal household
- The period petrol pump in the forecourt is still in place
- Reviews are divided — enthusiasts rate it highly, casual visitors often do not
Fit For
- 👨👩👧 Families: "Short, indoors and easy, though it needs an interest in cars."
- 🌍 Culture travellers: "The royal household seen through what it drove."
- 💕 Couples: "A quick stop with a well-regarded restaurant attached."
- 💼 Business: "Half an hour, central, and rarely crowded."
Highlights
- The 1934 Rolls-Royce Phantom and Cadillac convertibles — the collection's headline cars
