Here is a link to a very interesting article in a special travel section of today's Sunday New York Times about Jaipur & how it became the center of handicrafts and how some people are trying to preserve and enhance the wonderful handicrafts & allow the artisans to earn a living at it.

Very interesting article; thanks for posting the URL.

It's many years since I've been to Jaipur; maybe it's time to stop there again.
