One of the historic chowkries in the 18th century planned city of Jaipur, Chowkri Modikhana gets its name from its association with the Modis (trader communities). With its havelis, temples, public buildings, museums and craft areas it is a unique representation of the living heritage of the city. This walk provides an interactive, innovative encounter with the trading communities of the old city. With some story telling from the resident guides, it reveals the lifestyle, craft activities and historic buildings of this interesting area of Jaipur.
Sahapedia, in collaboration with Royal Rajasthan Foundation, hosted the Heritage Walk Training Programme in Jaipur for women from economically weaker sections of society to become walk/experience leaders in Feb-Mar 2021. In its first edition in Jaipur, we have collaborated with the Business and Community Foundation, Centre for Equity Studies, and Virasat Experience to train women from economically weaker sections of society to become walk/experience leaders.
