As a part of area-based development of The Smart City, many works related to the heritage and its conservation are taking place in Jaipur. In The Smart City Project, one of the focus of area-based development is ‘Smart Heritage and Tourism’ precincts. Redevelopment of Govind Dev Ji temple, Talkatora Lake as well as Ram Niwas Bagh, are also considered in the 11 projects under Smart Heritage and Tourism precincts, due to the highest number of footfall from the residents of Jaipur as well as the tourists. It is seen while we focus on shared identity of a heritage area, there is a substantial gap between how the residents and planning professionals perceive the aesthetics of the city. This study explores the perception of citizens of Jaipur about aesthetics of The Walled City. The study delivers a priority list of architectural elements which the citizens have recognized as the identity-forming characters of the streets of the heritage precincts.
