Vintage and Classic Car Collection
Vintage Car Museum
The private classic car collection of the Mewar royal family, with more than 20 vintage vehicles, including Rolls-Royces and Cadillacs, kept in excellent condition
The Vintage Car Museum is inside the Garden Hotel on the eastern side of Lake Pichola, formerly the royal garden palace. It displays more than 20 vintage cars from the Mewar royal collection, including 1930s–1940s Rolls-Royce Phantoms and a 20-hp model, a Cadillac convertible, MG sports cars and a Chevrolet bus, as well as a vehicle that once carried Queen Elizabeth II and appeared in the James Bond film Octopussy. Most cars are well maintained, and some can still be driven. The museum is fairly small and takes about 45 minutes to see. Admission is a few hundred rupees, with a light-meal package option (check on site). It is near Gulab Bagh, about 5 minutes by taxi or tuk-tuk from the City Palace.
