Shilpgram

Fodor's Review:

This rural arts-and-crafts village 3 km (2 mi) west of Udaipur includes a complex with 26 recreations of furnished village huts (authentic right down to their toilets) from Rajasthan, Gujarat, Maharashtra, Goa, and Madhya Pradesh. The town comes alive in December with the Shilpgram Utsav, when artists and craftspeople from around India arrive to sell and display their works. Puppet shows, dances, folk music, and handicrafts sales take place year-round, however. You can see all of the compound on a slow camel ride.

  • Cost: Rs. 25, camera fee Rs. 10, video-camera fee Rs. 50
  • Open: Daily 11-7
