"Pleasure Palace"

We took a boat ride to pleasure palace which is where the Royal Family would go and spending a couple weeks and do fishing, swimming etc in the summer months. It was built before the Summer Palace which is now the Lake Palace hotel we are staying in.

Boat Ride

Around the hotel

Some shots of us relaxing around the hotel before we took off for a boat ride on the lake. Another swing outside the room....

Lake Palace

The hotel was originally the "summer palace" for the Royal Family. Amazing details in the room we stayed in. It was once the Queen's room and the swimming pool of the hotel was her bath. Stained glass and a swing!!

Taj Lake Palace

Sunset cocktails and a view of the Royal Palace and the full moon from dinner on the rooftop of the hotel. The restaurant has been voted the 19th best view in the world.
