To say that Banjara Market has great handicraft gems is like saying the sun looks a bit hot. It’s a universal fact at this point. Don’t believe us, just take a quick trip to Gurgaon and see for yourselves those adorable mirrors, pretty dressers, cutesy decor items and you’d want them all. From tiny wall pins to an extravagant table, they have it all. So, make a list of what you want and stick to it - we are speaking from the experience of buying almost everything, except what was needed *Internal crying, but not really*

2. It’s A Live-Action History & Cultural Book

Banjara Market was set up in the mid-2000s by nomadic tribes from Rajasthan and since then it has never ceased to amaze the world. The products that are sold here come from Rajasthan and are either a bit defective or rejected by factories. This tradition and business practice have gone on for about 15-16 years, allowing us to get these pretty things at cheap prices.*Heart Eyes*

3. Items Sold Here Are An Absolute Steal, If You Can Bargain

Yes, the products are defective and aren’t ‘perfect’ but in some poetic way they are all unique in their own way and add to the whole illusion of ‘unique decor for our unique home.’ Let’s be honest, we all came out of that market with a quirky chair in hand thinking we may have robbed that vendor. This is the venue for all of you, first-time living-alone peeps to learn the art of bargain from your mum and make your new room look like a thousand bucks with just 200 bucks.

4. Perfect For A Cosy Evening Stroll

Coming to Banjara Market especially if you're not from Gurgaon may be a rare and very planned occurrence and you may spend your time just getting the perfect price and item. But, once you get used to the ins and outs of the market, you enjoy the hustle, the casual stroll of window shopping and seeing other people arguing over prices is something to cherish. No?
