Mapping Street Names

Jaipur's streets are not mere pathways; they are a tapestry of history, culture, and craftsmanship woven into the city's fabric. Named after the trades and legends that once thrived along them, each street tells a story that unfolds as one walks its cobblestones. From Bagru Waalon ka Rasta, renowned for its traditional fabric printing, to the whispers of local lore echoing down the lanes, Jaipur's streets are living museums of its vibrant past. The Street Names project honors this rich heritage by documenting the tales behind each street name, preserving the essence of Jaipur's local history for generations to come.

Now, this treasure trove of narratives is accessible to all through the digital map of the Old City, housed on the Jaipur World Heritage Website, ensuring that the spirit of Jaipur's streets lives on in the digital age.
