Abstract
The current trend of urbanization has brought new opportunities to the approach in conservation of heritage cities in India. The integrative approach to urban conservation and urban development brings reforms in policy for development and a design concept of ‘Public realm’ as an important tool to resolve issues of heritage and infrastructure. Tourism has emerged as an important social and economic force to mediate conservation and urban development, and to revitalize the essential structuring elements of built environment for the new challenges of urban change. The revitalization plan integrates the infrastructure needs, strengthen the historical elements, layering the tourism needs, creating neighborhood spaces, decongesting the traffic and improving the quality of space to allow both the people of the city and tourist to enjoy the experience.
