Saheliyon ki Bari was developed in the 18th century in the middle of 1710 and 1734, especially for the princess and her 48 guards who went with her after marrying Maharana Sangram Singh so that they could take some pleasant minutes while supporting the queen. The thought was to make the green retreat in the hot and generally dry state of Rajasthan. The king himself planned for Saheliyon Ki-Bari and taught this distinctive teacher of his beautiful kingdom. The ruler realized that the queen was proud of the sound of rain. From now on, the structure and the cover area were a passionate decision. It was built on the shores of Lake Fateh Sagar, which was filled as a consistent source of water from where it was drawn to wells and Lake Lotus. The Queen and her Imperial Guards often spent vital minutes here in Saheliyon ki Bari.

The garden was built to offer the Queen and the royal maidens a quick getaway from political matters. The garden also provides solitude for the king and Queen in the lap of nature. The garden was uniquely designed to create a recreational spot for Queen and its maidens. They spent long tireless hours walking and cherishing the exquisite beauty of nature.

Aristotle once said that “In all the things of nature, there is something of marvelous.” Hence one should always stay close to nature as it is one of the marvelous gifts, human beings can ever receive. Saheliyon Ki Bari also known as the Garden of Maidens, is one such marvel of nature created by man for a woman. In Indian history, women find little or no significant place, but things are different when we turn to the history of the Mewar Kingdom of Udaipur. Saheliyon Ki Bari is one of the rare areas in the history of India, where a particular place is built for women.
