Shri Lal Bhadur Shastri Bhatta Basti
Immerse yourself in an educational and ethical walking tour through the slum area of Jaipur. This experience will give you a unique perspective on the lives of locals, as you navigate through their vibrant sense of community and witness their entrepreneurial spirit within the narrow alleys. Sanjay Nagar Bhatta Basti is a community of 16 slums located in the north-west area of Shastri Nagar, at the foothills of Nahargarh hills. With approximately 60,000 residents and 10,000 households, it is a densely populated neighborhood situated along Amanishah road. Despite its challenges, this diverse community remains vibrant with its own unique culture and way of life.
Transport Nagar
Transport Nagar Kachchi Basti is the second largest slum area in Jaipur, situated along the Delhi-Jaipur bypass road. It serves as a home for approximately 7,000 families who have settled on whatever land was easily accessible to them. However, many of these plots are located in environmentally sensitive areas such as forests and flood-prone zones. Shockingly, 27% of Jaipur's slums are built on forestland and another 18% lie alongside major roads. This poses a significant threat to both the residents and the surrounding ecosystem. Discover the unique lifestyle and community of those living and working in challenging conditions. Despite the difficulties, there is a strong sense of positivity and camaraderie that makes it a truly special place to be. In this article, we will delve into the world of working and residential life and see how people thrive in these circumstances.
Monkey Temple
After exploring the slum area, be sure to visit the Monkey Galta Ji Temple. This beautiful temple is a must-see attraction and offers a unique cultural experience. Galtaji Temple, also known as the "monkey temple," is a popular tourist destination located approximately 10 kilometers from Jaipur's main city. This ancient site holds great cultural and religious significance for Hindus and attracts visitors from all over the world.
The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
