The history of Udai Bilas Palace, Dungarpur, Rajasthan dates from the mid-19th century, when Maharawal Udai Singhji-II, a great patron of art and architecture, built a wing of bluish grey local stone Pareva overlooking the lake and the Ek Thambia Mahal, featuring intricate sculptured pillars and panels, ornate balconies, balustrades, bracketed windows, arches and frieze of marble carvings, a veritable marvel of Rajput architecture.

The Udai Bilas Palace was enlarged in 1940 by Maharawal Laxman Singhji, who built three new wings around the Ek Thambia Mahal and thus created the famous "courtyard" of the Palace.
