Though a mall or two would ape the same coat of festivity but none can parallel the essence of the traditional bazaars. The pleasure of being in a real street market comes from the chaos that the place offers you and by the way people of that place in their euphoric state receive and interact with you.

The major market places in pink city are Kishanpol Bazaar, Nehru Bazaar, Johari Bazaar, Bapu Bazaar, Tripolia Bazaar . These colourful bazaars are major attraction for tourists as well. The availability and display of a wide variety of traditional art and handicrafts at affordable prices accounts to affluence of the heritage that these places hold.
