Although Jaipur is more famous for its mighty forts and the tales of braveries of Rajput kings. Another hidden exploration that’s the prime reason for tourists to lay their feet on this pink land is – its colourful and buzzing market scene. Designed by the local architectures, this local market of pink city is a cleanly carved section of small shops that lay on both the roadsides. You would be able to find almost each and everything in these small shops. You will be excited to know the fact that some shops are being operated by the third or fourth generation of the original shopkeepers who started doing their business from this colourful land.
Starting from the picturesque sight of Hawa Mahal, you will be taken through Tripolia Bazaar. Passing through Purohit Ji Ka Katla and Hanuman Ji Ka Rasta, you will venture into Johari Bazaar. Places like Ghee-walo Ka Rasta, Dhada Market and Haldiyon Ka Rasta will also come in your exploration journey. The major attractions in the local market are local clothing embellished with mirror and thread work, bangles made from different types of materials and the famous cotton textiles which are often coloured with tie and dye technique and seem luring you from a corner shop. Tasting the local kachauri and spicy samosas is a pleasant addition to this visually appealing tour. Return back to Hawa Mahal to explore the palace’s architecture.
