Rationale: Why is this case interesting?

This site is located in one of the most spectacular and picturesque areas of India, where jungle vegetation is abundant and the presence of water makes it a facile and foreseeable green infrastructure potential site. The presence of water, history, greenery, wildlife on one hand and the challenges given by a rising economy, growing population and the purpose of preserving world heritage vestiges, this is what makes this site so much interesting. What needs to be considered in analyzing this case is the seasonal movement of waters during the monsoon season, the existence of the Tiracol fort river, the areas that become flood plains during the monsoon, the mitigation of human life with the nature.
