The NorCal APA Urban Planning Tour of India

In Fall 2009 several planners and those related by profession, interest, or kinship will be taking an Urban Planning Tour of India organized by (take a deep breath) the International Committee of the Northern Section of the California Chapter of the American Planning Association. The tour will start in Delhi on October 25th, will end in Bombay on November 14, and will visit points in between including the Taj Mahal, a city designed by Le Corbusier, and the colorful cities of Jaipur, Jodhpur, and Udaipur. In each place along the way, tour events will include meetings with local planning professionals, tours of districts and sites of special interest to those with a planning background, and of course, a healthy share of pure tourism and cultural discovery.

This tour of India is a sequel to a very successful Spring 2007 tour of China organized by the same group. Almost half the people going on the tour of India are graduates of the 2007 tour of China.
