    If you’re staying at the Jai Mahal Palace, you can walk to Kote Gate in just 15 minutes, arriving before the midday rush. The textiles you’ll find in the narrow lanes by the main entrance are usually the most authentic hand loom cotton and silk. For spices, head to the corner that faces the bazaar square there you’ll spot fresh cardamom, cumin and garam masala. An early morning walk gives you the quiet and the freshest aromas, while a late afternoon stroll keeps you away from the larger crowds.
