It is true that Jaipur is one of the most popular tourist destinations all across the world. This is mainly due to the majestic forts and architectural remains that adorn this desert city. However, there is another segment that interests tourists when it comes to an ideal tourist destination- shopping! And believe it, Jaipur is a shopper's paradise!

Let's take a look at some of the items that you should shop, only and only from Jaipur:

It's all about the right colour and the right fabric: Jaipur, like any other desert city of the country, lays a lot of emphasis on colours. Bright coloured clothes are a speciality of this city. Various coloured fabrics are something that you should keep an eye out for. Speaking of colour, you should also try out Tie and Dye dupattas that are made here. The tie and dye method is known as bandhni and are usually extremely vibrant in colour! If you want to find a shop selling these authentic bags of colourful goodies, simply enquire at the resort where you are staying, and they will give you the best names in the market.

Fighting the chill with colour: When it comes to Jaipur, it is always a riot of colours. You get really cool colourful sleeveless as well as full sleeve jackets, which are perfect for warming yourself up in the winters here. These jackets are rarely available in other cities of the country and even if they are, they are exorbitantly prized! So, grab one of these beauties when you are in Jaipur.

Try out the jewellery: Jaipur is a haven when it comes to jewellery. Go for the oxidized ones since these are the best that you can get over here. The designs are unique and the prices are really cheap, so there is no point in not buying them. These will be available in plenty in the road side markets near your resort.

The story of printed fabrics: Block printing is one of the principle art forms that are religiously practised in Jaipur. You have artisans being summoned from this city to other parts of the country to showcase their talent. There are couple of block printing factories, in and around the city itself, where you can go and find out for yourself how the process works. Definitely bag one of these fine works of art!

Apart from these, you can also take home a few handcrafted souvenirs, which are also quite unique to this place. It's time to go for some shopping in Jaipur!
