The Jain pilgrimage of Ranakpur is a major draw for the tourists all over the world. The Jain temples display a fantastic union of Hindu and Jain architectural style.

But Ranakpur is a small village and there is not much opportunity for shopping in Ranakpur. But, if you were a passionate shopper, returning from a tour to Ranakpur without shopping in Ranakpur may sound quite impossible.

Travel.mapsofindia recommends you to shop in Udaipur, instead of shopping in Ranakpur. Udaipur is a major city close to Ranakpur and offers wonderful shopping experience.

Miniature paintings are the most popular item for shopping in Udaipur. The skilled artisans of the region have perfected over the years this very different form of painting featuring long necks, large almond-shaped eyes, long fingers and the use of subdued colours.

You may look for silver jewelry, gems and potteries, which are the famous handicrafts of Udaipur. Apart from that also check out stone carved items and puppets while shopping in Udaipur.

With a large number of shopping joints, Udaipur substitute for lack of opportunity for good shopping in Ranakpur. Government Emporia and private shops are galore all over the city. You may also choose to shop from the showrooms at the hotels. Most premier hotels house such shops but of course price would be on the higher side.
