The Neemach Mata ropeway in Udaipur, Rajasthan, was inaugurated on January 22. The ropeway, built for INR 20 crore, will transport passengers to the Neemach Mata temple, which is dedicated to the revered deity of Udaipur.

The ropeway is situated at the picturesque Fateh Sagar Lake and offers stunning views of Udaipur. It is 500 feet long and has 12 ventilated cabins with automatic doors.
