Warped extra dimensions is an extremely interesting idea for physics beyond the Standard Model. Since these models have the capacity to simultaneously address two basic puzzles, namely Electroweak (EW)-Planck and EW-Flavor hierarchies, they offer a compelling appeal. However, models based on the basic idea are not developed to the extent that precise predictions can be made. Their experimental implications for LHC as well as for flavor physics will be explored specially emphasizing generic messages that emerge from these models.
