Sounds sus: Let me know if it's a scam. My mom and her friends are on a trip to Udaipur. Today their guide/cab driver took them to some local shops, one of which was a jewellery shop. The shopkeeper showed them some earrings claiming to be made of moissanite gemstones. The cost of those earrings were 10k (she bargained it to 8k). She hasn't picked them up yet and intends to go there day after before she flies back home. Something doesn't seem right but she's pretty convinced. I just want you ask you guys if it's actually... 2 0 replies

Jaipur and Rajasthan in general can compete with European countries in architecture but it's our own cultural insensitivity which drags us... 5 0 replies
Camel Wool blankets from Jaisalmer I went to Jaisalmer last week and the driver who we had hired dropped us off to a shop for local shopping. The sales man of the shop did a good job in trying to convince us about the Camel Wool Blankets (4500 for king size) but I thought they felt more like microfiber than wooly. So we came back without buying anything. Now that I try to find about them on Google there's very little about them. Was it a case of fraud attempt? Did I dodge the... 5 0 replies
Ready made plus size clothes (Bundi/Udaipur) I'm going to be visiting Rajasthan for the first time next month, and I love discovering different fabrics and styles of clothes that I can't get at home (I live in the south), so I'd like to buy some new clothes while I'm there.

To give you an idea, I can normally wear XXL from Trends or Fabindia but sometimes they're too small, so I'd need that... 3 0 replies
