HOW WE CAN USE THESE CULTURAL

ELEMENT IN SPATIAL PLANNING

CONDITION: I NEED TO MAKE A TOWN FOR THIS

VILLAGE .

1. AS WE KNOW THAT THERE IS TOO MUCH

CAST SYSTEM THATS WHY WE SHOULD TO
MAKE TWO SEPERETED AREA, BUT WE
SHOULD TO MAKE SAME PATTERN,AND
BUILDING DESIGN.
2. WE CAN MAKE TWO SEPARATED TAMPLES
FOR BOTH SOCIETY.
3. SCHOOL CAN BE COMBINED.
4. SCHOOL AND TAMPLE SHOULD BE FAR FROM
RESIDENTIAL AREA.
5. WATER SOURCE CAN BE SAME WHICH WILL
DEVIDED IN TO TWO MAIN SUB LINE.
6. MARKET CAN BE SITUATED BETWEEN BOTH
AREAS.
7. ALSO PARK CAN BE IN BETWEEN OF BOTH
SPACE.

ACCORDING TO MY SPTIAL PLANNING THE

PLAN SHOULD BE LIKE THIS.
