Silent Space: A unique initiative to revive the sound landscape of Jaipur city
The identity of the historical and cultural places of the Pink City is now being affected by the changing sound landscape. Places that once resonated with vibrant social and cultural activities are now losing their originality in traffic and the hustle and bustle of modern life. To understand and preserve this changing scenario, a unique initiative called Silent Space - Soundscape of Jaipur City has been taken. The aim of Silent Space is to make people aware that sounds are not just sounds, but they also tell stories of the history and culture of a place. This initiative can prove to be an important step towards finding peaceful moments in the noisy environment of Jaipur and preserving cultural heritage.
