Caption: Udaipur, Rajasthan, India - Apr 2003. The Lake Palace, the former residence of the Maharana of Mewar, now one of India's most celebrated landmarks and a luxury hotel, as seen from the balcony of a guest room at Shiv Niwas, another of the Maharana's palaces. Princes once renowned for their extravagant pomp and spending, once dethroned and stripped of land, were allowed to keep their palaces. Deprived of the taxes they collected from farmers and villagers, they had to convert their stately homes into tourist ventures to avoid bankruptcy. Shiv Niwas became famous as the location for the James Bond movie Octopussy.
