It’s no wonder when I talk to my friends in Delhi, they often relate Jaipur with palaces, museums, the beautiful walled city, its culture and heritage. What people are not aware of is that Jaipur is home to so many beautiful cafes and spaces where one would love to spend their evenings alone or with friends.
I’ve always loved the quaint little cafes in Jaipur and after shifting to Delhi, I miss such places. It’s lovely how Jaipur have been successful in living up to the meaning of “Cafes”. Unlike the metropolitan, Cafes in Jaipur are respites from the hustle and bustle, where you can sit and relax for hours with a book and a hot cup of coffee. Not just for namesake, these cafes play soothing music and serve amazing food at reasonable prices.
On your next trip to the pink city, we recommend you try these cafes for a guaranteed good time!
