Conservation of Bazaars in the Walled City – Udaipur

As part of the Udaipur Smart City theme: “Eternal Udaipur: World’s favorite Lakeside Heritage City”, there is a keen focus on heritage conservation. These interventions are subsequently being taken up by Udaipur. The interventions are expected play a major role in the upkeep, maintenance and up-gradation of the traditional markets of Udaipur; the interventions are:
• Conservation of the traditional character of the historic ‘bazaars’ – restoration and conservation of historic/ heritage building facade
• Development & up-gradation of physical infrastructure of the historic ‘bazaars’ – shifting overhead electrical/ other cables underground and street/ facade illumination
• Developing tourist amenities in the historic ‘bazaars’ – developing amenities like toilet, drinking water facilities, and parking spaces
• Uniform development and branding of the historic ‘bazaars’ (providing street furniture like benches, street signage, building/ shop signage, and uniform street section development)
