Main Bazaars In Jaipur

Johari Bazaar
Jaipur is a major center of jewelry production, and is especially known for precious, semi-precious stones and traditionally designed jewelry. The best place to purchase them is at Johari Bazaar, the jeweler's market of the city. Various necklaces, pendants, earrings, rings, bracelets and other pieces of jewelry, made of gold studded with precious stones like diamonds, emeralds, rubies and pearls are displayed to mesmerize you with their sheer beauty and glitter.

Bapu Bazaar and Nehru Bazaar
Do visit the Bapu Bazaar or Nehru Bazaar to get the popular 'Mojri' footwear!!! Made up of soft camel leather and artistically embroidered, the footwear is available in vibrant colors and that too at comparatively low prices. Locally called as 'Juti', the footwear is known for comfort and durability.

Kishanpol Bazaar

Kishanpol Bazaar is the famous market of the city known for textiles and wooden furniture. Running parallel to Baba Harish Chandra Marg and Chaura Rasta, this bazaar is a special place to buy Bandhani textiles. Bandhani or tie & dye is a skillful art practiced in Jaipur on a large scale.

Tripolia Bazaar

Between the Manak Chowk and Chhoti Chaupar lies the Tripolia Bazaar known for ironware, brassware and carpets. However, the bazaar has many shops dealing in utensils, rugs, textiles, furniture, trinkets and range of other items. The Maniharon ka Rasta of this bazaar is a good place for lac bangles.
