On one hand Shilpogram is a wonderful idea on the part of the government, but on the other hand the "artists colony" is slightly creepy. Amidst displays of typical tribal life there were artists and craftsmen and women hawking their wares along with dancers and musicians performing traditional songs. The whole thing had the feel of a living museum, or, for the creepy angle — human zoo. - </span> - </p> - </article> - <article class="h-entry hentry even third" itemscope itemType="http://schema.org/Article"> - <div class="post--image"> - <a href="/jrnl/2005/11/monsoon-palace" title="The Monsoon Palace"><img src="https://images.luxagraf.net/post-images/2008/monsoonpalace.jpg" alt="The Monsoon Palace" class="u-photo post-image" itemprop="image" /></a> - </div> - <h2 class="p-name entry-title post--title" itemprop="headline"><a href="/jrnl/2005/11/monsoon-palace" class="u-url" title="The Monsoon Palace">The Monsoon Palace</a></h2> - <p class="p-author author hide" itemprop="author"><span class="byline-author" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Person"><span itemprop="name">Scott Gilbertson</span></span></p> - <time class="dt-published published dt-updated post--date" datetime="2005-11-29T12:03:31">November <span>29, 2005</span></time> - <p> - <span class="p-location h-adr adr post--location" itemprop="contentLocation" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Place"> - <span class="p-region">Udiapur</span>, <a class="p-country-name country-name" href="/jrnl/india/" title="travel writing from India">India</a> - <span style="display: none;" itemprop="geo" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/GeoCoordinates"> - <data itemprop="latitude" class="p-latitude" value="24.66199437588058">24.66199437588058</data> - <data itemprop="longitude" class="p-longitude" value="73.68804930614868">73.68804930614868</data> - </span> - </span> – - <span class="p-summary entry-summary hyphenate" itemprop="description"> - We started out in the early evening quickly leaving behind Udaipur and its increasing urban sprawl.
