Shopping & Souvenirs

Tips for Tourists:

• Bargain: Especially in local markets.
• Check Authenticity: Look for government emporiums or artisans with GI tags.
• Avoid Plastic & Mass-produced Souvenirs: Support local craftspeople.
• Attend Handicraft Fairs: Like Surajkund Mela (Haryana), Shilpgram (Udaipur), and Crafts Museum (Delhi).

Indian handicrafts not only represent artistic excellence but also provide livelihoods to millions of artisans. Shopping in India is not just commerce – it’s an experience of culture, color, and craftsmanship.
