We took a guided walk through the small rural village of Bagru, outside of Jaipur. We were picked up and returned to Jaipur. In Bagru, we toured small local workshops with craftsmen hand carving wooden blocks to be used in printing.

My husband and I had a wonderful time at Bagru learning about how this beautiful prints are created. We witnessed all the process, from selecting the fabrics, to how the colors involved are created, etc. and we even had the opportunity of meeting different members of the families that have been doing this for decades.

My Jaipur Morning Heritage Walk was delightful, full of amazing surprises and ever so interesting.
