    Scope Of Work :
    The Holy city Amritsar is ranked 12th among major tourist destinations in
    India and opening of the Heritage Village will revive the old charm of
    Punjabs villages which used to showcase various religions.

    The location of the village on the road to the Attari-Wagah joint checkpost
    would come in handy to the thousands of tourists heading to witness the
    Retreat Ceremony.

    It would include shops of potter, blacksmith, carpenter, dhaba and an


    akhara, a traditional wrestling place. These shops would not only prepare
    traditional items but would sell these to the interested visitors. A block had
    been reserved for holding a mela, which used to be an integral part of the
    rural life. Interested tourists could also stay there, as nearly 20 rooms are
    being constructed for staying purpose.

    As per the ancient tradition of Punjab, the village would have a "khera" (first
    house dedicated to God with no idol
    inside) and "Gugga Marri" (snake shrine).
    These shrines used to be built first
    before the setting up of a new village.
    Method of Studies to be followed:
    Firstly keeping in mind the limitations and
    difficulties, the precise architecturally relevant
    area and extent of research that is attempted to
    understand the concept of a Heritage Village will
    be identified.

    Literature Study will help us to learn about the Site Analysis


    standards of Punjabi Culture.

    Referring books on the village studies we will


    come to know the aspects being followed while
    designing.
    Literature Heritage Live Case
    Live Case Studies will help to identify and Studies
    Village Studies
    analyze the problems and drawbacks of the
    same, as well as will help in resolving
    architectural solutions to be imparted in
    designing process.
    Designing and
    These observations, experiments and Planning
    questionnaires will give the clarity to the detailed
    methodology to be adopted while designing.

    Designing and Planning of Heritage village will


    meet the requirements with proper areas,
    circulation without compromising the aura of
    Punjabi Culture.
