If you don&#8217;t have enough time on your hands and still want to get a variety of knick-knacks for your home, Jaipur is where you should spend your money. You&#8217;ll get everything here &#8211; jewellery, clothes, footwear, you name it. Jewellery is where Jaipur literally shines &#8211; here you can find work done with gems and semi-precious stones, and setting gems in gold and enamel, along with bangles. For textiles, you&#8217;ll find sanganeri, hand block-printed textiles, dyed fabrics and kota doria saris.<\/p>\n<p>For artwork, look for miniature paintings, blue pottery, enamelware and brassware.<\/p>\n<p>Some of the most well-known spots for shopping include Johari Bazaar, MI Road, Nehru Bazaar, Bapu Bazaar and Chaupar Stalls.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Bikaner\"><\/span><strong>Bikaner<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Bikaner is famed for stunning handicrafts which use camel and sheep skin. These include shoes, chairs, rugs, belts, bags and wallets &#8211; all things you can use. There are also miniature paintings on camel hides!<\/p>\n<p>Here, you can also find wooden antiques, bangles, carpets and nokha quilts. However, if you have Bikaner in your list, try to plan your visit as the same time as the famous Camel Festival, to take fun camel rides and shop at the stalls that are set up here. Check out King Edward Memorial Road, Junagarh Fort and Station Road for shopping hubs throughout the year.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Jaisalmer\"><\/span><strong>Jaisalmer<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Known for its intricate work, you can see it in the stunning embroidery, mirror work weave on fabric, beautiful rugs and blankets and precise artwork on antiques. \u00a0Jutties (hand-made shoes) are another great purchase that you can actually use. There are colorful fabrics, jackets, and camel-leather items. For a burst of color, look into the tie and dye fabric work here. Spend a day out in the city shopping in Bhatia Bazaar, Gandhi Darshan, Seema Gram, Rajasthani Government Shop and the Khadi Gramodyog Bhavan (Emporium).<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Pushkar\"><\/span><strong>Pushkar<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Near Ajmer, Pushkar is known for its massive markets popular for leather goods, colourful toys, beads, miniature paintings and pottery.
