💡 The boat rides run short circuits on the lake—fun for kids or a quick break. Skip the food stalls inside; better to eat at a proper restaurant in town.
💡 Go early morning to avoid the afternoon heat. The bastion itself is small—spend 20 minutes here, then explore the nearby Darbargadh Palace (from outside only).
💡 Take an auto-rickshaw from town (around ₹150 each way). Combine with the nearby Khijadiya Bird Sanctuary if you're keen on nature.
💡 Visit late afternoon for cooler temperatures and good light for photos. The lake is often dry in summer, so don't expect water if coming April–June.
💡 Hire a rickshaw for a few hours (around ₹300–400) as the sanctuary is spread out. Bring binoculars—there's no rental on site.
