Jaipur, also known as Pink city, is a city of culture, festivals, shopping, food, heritage etc etc. You might be living in Jaipur for years now, and there is a new place which comes up every day in this evolving world, but there are still some things which make you a die-hard Jaipurite and no matter what changes, these things might not change š
1. Picnic means Nahargarh
2. Every guest should be taken once to Chokhi Dhani
3. You have watched hundreds of movies with your family at Raj Mandir with a pyaaz ki kachori in interval
4. You park your vehicle outside a mall despite having an official parking area inside
5. You have negotiated and renegotiated on Link road
6. You have spent hours at Crossword without buying a single book
7. You have enjoyed your coffeeĀ at Statue Circle at night while your car is parked in the no parking area

13. No hanging out spot can beat Gaurav Towers
14.Ā Got stuck in the traffic jam at Khasa Kothi too many times
15. You take everyone whoās new in town to have Lassi at Lassiwala
16. You have attended unlimited Goth at Khole Ke Hanumaan Ji
17. While eating Dal Baati Churma, you forget the meaning of the word ācaloriesā
18. You know that Hawa Mahal is the Taj Mahal of Jaipur
19. Saras Sankul is the favourite night spot
20. Malls are the sightseeing spots, shopping bole to Walled City
21. JLN is equivalent to Formula 1 race track
22. Pandit means Pav Bhaji joint

while most of these are true.. who the hell parks their car in a no-parking these days? probably the article was written years ago when there was no fine and/or the cars were not immediately towed from the no-parking zones… !!!
Mr. Deepak.
Thanks a lot for taking out time to read our blog š
You are right that traffic police is working hard to tow the vehicles when parked on road but this blog is new and fresh and not written ages ago. You can go and have a look on the lane opposite Pink square mall and you will surely get your answer.
You forgot sargasuli, nahargarh n amer forts. And mention of well planned parallel roads in the walled city.
Great list for proving to be a Jaipurite, although kites, Jalmahal, Ghevar, LMB are missing… nevertheless its great to see all these pictures.
i love you my jaipur
Can you think of Jaipur without Govind Dev Ji?
But otherwise i agree with all the points
no mention about kites.
caught by police on Ajmeri Gate Once for rash driving.
5 Days lightning on Diwali.
Murli pan bhandar wale ka paan too xD
Lal kothi ki famous tea point “banna ji”
Thank You for your feedback š
Hahaha….so true….n i really love dis city…amazing n world’s best city.. jo kahin ni hota vo humare jpr m hota h….jpr ki baat hi alg hš
haha:D love to be jaipurite..
all r very true..
not added bhagat ke doodh ke laddu and rawat ki pyaz ki kachori
in our times hanging out meant Surya Mahal and no mention of “Bhagat’
I am proud to be a Jaipurite
Who can forget link road k golgappe or madhur ras bhandar ka ganne ka juice or ram Chandra ki kulfi or govind dev JI ka mandir or lmb ke ghevar
Thank You for inputs š
Great article!! Brings back fond memories but at the same time reminds me that I have been out of my Jaipur for a long enough time to see a few new things that have come up after I left⦠but a great list that could get better once you add kites (Sankrant) and the Diwali lights in the walled city. And while Aunty, Pandit and Sanjay have featured in this list Mamu’s is absent and that could be because that was ‘the’ place when I was in Jaipur!!
Nostalgic…
i am a japurite and i love jaipur more than any city
jaipur has its own culture and its fun and thrill to live
i love jaipur JAIPUR ROCKS
2 things missing
Kites
Papaya shake – no where you find papaya shake
Thank You š
rest all is true :P, and yes have used the JLN as race track, gorged on pyaaz ki kachori, omlett, stuck at traffic jam , hang around gaurav tower for hours (Uske piche gyan vihar dairy ya gt ke pass ki coffee), EP me movie, JKK (jawahar kala kendra) ki coffee
man wat days š , after living away from your home for almost 6 years – u do miss it once in a while

Thank You Mr. Raghav.
pleasure is all mine.
Wow!!!! I have been not living in Jaipur since last 36yrs. But i visit sometimes every 2 weeks and many times go there just for lunch from Delhi since my whole clan is in Jaipur. Nobody can dare to say i am not a Jaipurite. In my heart, soul and mind i am totally a Jaipur wali. Oh how i miss being there everyday!!!!
Once you add all the other features reminded by people, this site will be so interesting that people will watch it again and again, specially the ones who are living away. Thanks a ton.
So that’s the main idea to touch the chord of all those who belongs to Jaipur by heart. Thank you Bela Singh for liking it š
Exactly, I do have collection of leheriya &
Love to eat daal bati churma ………..
š
Waooo.. Tremendous work.. Too proud to be a Jaipurite… No place is better than dis, take my words… A true Jaipur wala who has experienced these places and delicacies would know how majestic this place is.
Thank You very much Nitin and we are glad that you liked it š
Yaad aa gaya wo gujra jamana khushboo bini bini wo jaipur ka khazana i realy miss jaipur i stay in surat but my soul is in jaipur
š š
lack of observations towards the city and city folks, please be little research based…it is very much mediocre…..
for instance http://www.scoopwhoop.com/inothernews/signs-that-say-youre-new-to-bangalore/
in this post they are being very true to the space and new people to the city.
so kindly rectify it cause it pains when people say it is mediocre.
Mediocre ? Pain ? what is it that you are so unhappy about ? Please read the blog once again and compare it with the one you are referring to. Our blog is specifically meant for people who have lived and are living in Jaipur, of all age groups and varied interests. Which facts do you find in our blog as incorrect, and what made you think that this blog is mediocre and “cows, cows everywhere” strikes a chord with people ? We are open to criticism but criticising just for sake of one is not something which is appreciated. This is our largest blog till date and only thing that made it happen was that the content and connection with our audience was spot on.
i agree, it is like trying to project that jaipur is either undeveloped or so much stereo typical , which is not true, jaipur is much above all these things and looks like this post was actually written for previous decade
Hello Mr. Kunal. Still liking the coffee from Statue Circle or Pyaaz Ki Kachori is not stereo typical or undeveloped, it is a fact and there is nothing to be ashamed of. Firstly, A tourist visiting Jaipur will not want to see the modern Jaipur, they would want to see the heritage and essence of pink city which we have talked about here. Secondly, Yes it hasn’t been written for just the current generation, it is meant for the older generations who appreciate the development of the city but still cherish their old walled city.
What About Ladkian Tadna š at Every corner of city š
Hahaha !! That doesn’t prove you are a true Jaipurite, that proves that you are a true boy :p
Thanks for reminding lost memories
That is all true
š
Nice collection….. Jaipur can’t be summarized still…. There are many more… When we include… there will be again many more.
We will be covering more things soon š Any Suggestions from your side are most welcome š
U can add jawahar circle musical fountain, horse riding in front of Albert Hall, evening fireworks on makar sankranti also the madness during the day for kites and much more. my Jaipur can not b described only by words.
Keep the good work going. š
Thanks Saurabh š
Awesome collection….. but few things should also be added like… Amer fort, kanak ghati, Govind dev ji, Moti doongri Ganesh ji, kites, teej festival (teej ki sawari), Maharani and Maharaja collage, mini buses of jaipur, khajane walon ka rasta and so many other things which makes jaipur THE BEST.
its almost seven years i left jaipur… after reading your collection … saari yaadein taaza ho gai… Thank u..
missing u jaipur… š
We will surely talk about this in our next blog š
reminded me the beautiful time spent there… Thanks.. š Govind Dev ji temple, City Palace, chaudha rasta (for books), bagariya bhawan, 22 godaam circle, posh buildings in civil lines.. also could be added..
We will surely talk about this in our next blog š
Felt nostalgic after seeing this…Jaipur is incredible
That rules me out then! But what fabulous pictures!
