Rajasthan
Rajasthan’s heritage is often associated with grand forts and palaces, but its deeper cultural fabric lies in water systems, desert settlements, gateways, stepwells, and lived urban forms. Across arid landscapes, heritage evolved through adaptation, resilience, and community planning. Many structures remain functional, while others survive as ruins or partially preserved fragments. Rajasthan reflects how architecture, landscape, and survival are tightly interwoven.
