Free Things to Do in Jaipur
You don't need to spend a cent to have an incredible time in Jaipur. Here are the best free experiences the city has to offer.
Free activities in Jaipur
Photograph Hawa Mahal
The Palace of Winds' incredible pink facade with 953 small windows is free to admire from the street. The morning light is best — it hits the sandstone and makes it glow. The most iconic free sight in Jaipur.
Walk Through the Pink City Markets
The old city's bazaars — Johari, Bapu, and Tripolia — are free to wander. Block-printed textiles, lac bangles, and blue pottery line the streets. The sensory overload is the experience.
Birla Mandir Temple
A stunning white marble temple that's free to enter. The modern architecture is impressive, and at night the illuminated temple against the dark Moti Doongri hill is beautiful.
City Palace Exterior
While the interior museum charges entry, walking through the outer courtyards and admiring the palace's blend of Rajput and Mughal architecture is free. The massive ornamental gates are extraordinary.
Watch Block Printing in Sanganer
Visit the printing village south of Jaipur where artisans demonstrate traditional woodblock textile printing. Many workshops welcome visitors for free, hoping you'll buy — and the scarves make perfect gifts.
Jal Mahal Photo Stop
The Water Palace floating in Man Sagar Lake is inaccessible but free to photograph from the shore. The Aravalli hills behind the lake and the palace's reflection make a perfect shot.
Sunset at Albert Hall Museum Gardens
The museum gardens are free to enter and the Victorian-Indo-Saracenic building is stunning at sunset. The fountains, lawns, and the illuminated museum at dusk are beautiful.
Explore Amer Village
The village at the base of Amer Fort is free to wander. Ancient havelis, small temples, and local life give context to the fort above. The stepwell nearby is also free to visit.
