Perhaps it is the vastness of the country and its timeless quality. Perhaps it is the strange mixture of a multiplicity of peoples and cultures which strikes a hidden chord in us, for whom this land seems so alien and yet so fascinating. Or perhaps it is the way that humans and nature are so closely linked, co-existing in a way that seems highly improbable. There are some places in a lifetime that simply must be visited, and India is one of them. Through the years we have developed an expertise on India train journeys. It all started in 2001 when VENT inaugurated its fabulous Palace on Wheels tour. Subsequent train trips in different parts of the country were equally successful. In 2019, VENT debuted a fabulous new India train tour aboard the beautiful Maharajas’ Express. Based on the great success of this trip we will operate this special departure again in 2022! Across a broad swath of west-central India, we will travel in comfort while visiting the great princely cities of Rajasthan state: Udaipur, Jodhpur, and Jaipur; a host of wonderful national parks and preserves; and cultural wonders. Traveling in such style, in a way rarely experienced by modern-day travelers, will take us back in time and into the heart of Rajput country.

  • Bandhani (Tie and Die) – a Rajasthani Technique for Dyeing Textiles
    SRJIS/BIMONTHLY/DR. RANJANA GUPTA (5083-5086) BANDHANI (TIE AND DIE) – A RAJASTHANI TECHNIQUE FOR DYEING TEXTILES Ranjana Gupta, Ph. D. Associate Professor- Home Science, K. R. Girls P.G. College Mathura Scholarly Research Journal's is licensed Based on a work at www.srjis.com The art of Bandhani is highly skilled process. The technique involves dyeing a fabric which is tied tightly with a thread at several points , thus producing a variety of patterns like Leheriya, Mothra, Ekdali and Shikari depending on the manner in which the cloth is tied. 1.1 History Different forms of tie and dye have been practiced in India. Indian Bandhani, a traditional form of tie and dye, began about 5000 years ago. Also known as Bandhani and Bandhej, it is the oldest tie and dye tradition that is still practiced. Dyes were discovered by primitive man/woman in the form of extracts of various plants, flowers, leaves, bark, etc., which were applied to cloth and other fabrics. Even though color was applied they didn't consider this dyeing. It was simply a form of embellishment. What was considered dyeing was the art of using color to form a permanent bond with fiber in a prepared dye bath. Ancient artists discovered that some dyes dissolved and gave their color readily to water, forming a solution which was easily absorbed by the fabric. Herbs and plants like turmeric and indigo were crushed to a fine powder and dissolved in water so that cotton material could be dyed into deep colours. These colours have been used in India since ancient times and are considered to be the origin of the art of dyeing.

  • Traditional Clothes of the Country(Joint
    Message froM PRESIDENT Dear Rotaractors, Warm Rotaract Greetings from Rotaract Club of Thane North (RID 3142- India) We are glad sharing an editorial space with you and find great pleasure introducing the Traditional attire of our country. As you know India is a diverse country and has 29 states and 7 union territories. Every state has their own diverse language and traditional attire. We even have diversity in religion maximum people following Hinduism and the rest being Islam, Christianity and Sikhism; leave aside the other tribes which have their own traditional attire. Living in such a diversified country it is difficult to write about the entire traditional clothing, but here I will just try giving you a glimpse of the same. For men, traditional clothes are the Achkan/Sherwani, Bandhgala, Lungi, Kurta, Angarkha, Jama and Dhoti or Pajama. Additionally, recently pants and shirts have been accepted as traditional Indian dress by the Government of India. In India, women's clothing varies widely and is closely associated with the local culture, religion and climate. Traditional Indian clothing for women in the north and east are saris worn with choli tops; a long skirt called a lehenga or pavada worn with choli and a dupatta scarf to create an ensemble called a gagra choli; or salwar kameez suits, while many south Indian women traditionally wear sari and children wear pattu langa. Saris made out of silk are considered the most elegant. Mumbai, formerly known as Bombay, is one of India's fashion capitals. In many rural parts of India, traditional clothes is worn.

  • Water Symbols and Architecture in Champaner-Pavagadh, Gujarat, India
    Water Symbols and Architecture in Champaner-Pavagadh, Gujarat, India Amita Sinha Professor of Landscape Architecture University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign Summary The paper describes displacements of historic communities, abandonment of forts, and reclamation of sacred sites in the case study of the cultural landscape of Champaner-Pavagadh in Gujarat, India. The place dereliction resulted in a loss of traditional knowledge of water management, crucial to the survival of communities. Water symbols and architecture of its Hindu and Islamic building periods are interpreted to rediscover the lost ‘water-intelligence’. The paper argues that water is the unifying element in reading the bifurcated site—Hindu pilgrim site on Pavagadh Hill and Islamic Champaner city at its foot--and advocates conservation of historic waterworks so that they can be a frame for sensory experience of visitors. Case Study Champaner-Pavagadh, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Gujarat, is an interesting and unusual case study in how religion, culture, terrain, and climate interact in creating water systems that sustained large communities for 800 years between the 8th and 16th centuries. Champaner was the capital of Gujarat and as such its rich architectural legacy forms an important chapter in the architectural and urban history of India. As the last of settlements at the site, with the previous ones on Pavagadh Hill, its extant fortifications and water management systems are a marvel of engineering of the medieval era. The first Hindu settlement on the hill dates back to 8th c. and by 1484 CE it had been captured by the Muslim Sultan Mehmud Beghada who built his new city Champaner at its foot.
