Blue Houses of Jodhpur - Great Attractions (India)

  • 13 years ago
Take a tour of Blue Houses of Jodhpur in India – part of the World’s Greatest Attractions travel video series by GeoBeats.

Backed by a red stone plateau, crowned by an old fort, is Old Jodhpur.

Dropping down from the hill is a veritable sea of blue. Blue houses, in fact.

These houses are such an integral part of Jodhpur that it's also called the Blue City.

The Blue Houses spread out over a large area of the city, several miles.

It's largely thought that the blue wash was put on as a protective coat.

Jodhpur is also known as the Sunny City, so the Blue Houses shine brightly year round.
