Diwali week · Oct – Nov
Diwali nights in Jaipur
Three nights in a Pink-City haveli with the lit-up old town below your window, a private rooftop thali, and front-row at the Amer fort illumination.
Jaipur treats the lighting of Diwali as a competition between its markets. Johari, Bapu and Tripolia are decorated to a standard that draws judges and enormous crowds, and the whole walled city glows for several nights running.
Traffic inside the gates effectively stops for the week. Being able to walk home to a haveli within the walls, rather than drive back out to a hotel on the ring road, is most of the difference between enjoying it and enduring it.
The shape of it
Day 1
Inside the walls
Into the haveli, with the old town below the window. Being inside the gates is what makes the rest of the week walkable.
Day 2
The lit markets
Johari, Bapu and Tripolia after dark, and the private rooftop thali above them.
Day 3
Amer illuminated
Front-row for the fort illumination.
Day 4
Out
The last morning, before the city starts again.
