Narlai, a small village midway between Jodhpur and Udaipur, is a convenient base for visiting Ranakpur and Kumbhalgarh. The villages here are interesting with a distinctly pastoral lifestyle. There are some remarkable step-wells in this area which are worth seeing, as are the many wells with working Persian Wheels used to irrigate small fields.
Rock formations
You will note several interesting rock formations close to Narlai, the most spectacular one being in front of the Rawla Narlai. The sight of this enormous rock is so compelling that it is difficult to avoid staring at it. It is possible to climb at least a part of this rock and visit some quaint little shrines.
