Remodeling Paradise: Eco Tourism plan of Thol Bird Sanctuary, Mehsana district, 2011
The urban stress in Ahmedabad city has greatly increased over the last few years. Thol lake is one of the few ecological reserves near the city. It is imperative to save and promote this environmentally significant place that harbours a rich biodiversity.
The idea was to develop eco-tourism with a sensitive approach to planning that will conserve, preserve, protect and enhance the ecological reserve The proposal provides sustainable design solutions to significantly improve its micro environment and the existing flora and fauna. The effort is to introduce activities and spaces which do not sacrifice the environment or natural agricultural practices in the name of tourism. But instead, involve these components to create a sustainable project & livelihood.
