The Jodhpur Dream

The fort is impressive as one enters jodhpur. I belong to this city, studied here, but somehow there is something hugely lacking here. The rush you can see everywhere is towards two things a. Handicrafts. b. Accommodation. Guest houses, hotels, and what not. This has led to secondary things like taxis, and shops selling everything from anklets to elephant carvings.

Is the spirit of Jodhpur going to stay alive?

I keep asking myself, what can be done, to bring this city to the notice of the world in either knowledge economy. How can tourism be made a cultural center rather than a money making industry.
