Vastu (Urban Planning) Walk

Meeting point: Choti Choupar Police Station http://bit.ly/2FNQtr0

Jaipur is special in that it is practically the only city in India that exemplifies a practical living model of the ancient Indian architectural doctrine of Vastu-vidya. Discover one of the least explored facets of the Pink city!

This walk explores the scientific and methodical approach underlying the founding of the city, guided equally by ancient Indian architectural / city building Vastu principles, as well as late mediaeval / pre-modern contexts when the city was founded.

Guided by Himanshu Verma (Director, Red Earth & Arts Curator).
