Raipur

Raipur, the capital of the Indian state of Chhattisgarh, is a city of contrasts. Bustling modern avenues like Marine Drive, lined with cafes and boutiques, sit alongside historical gems like the 17th-century Lal Qila fort. Nature lovers can escape to the lush greenery of Mahaveer Park or spot tigers at the nearby Purushottamgarh Wildlife Sanctuary.
Foodies will be spoilt for choice in Raipur’s vibrant markets. Sample succulent kebabs at Chowpaty Square, or try the melt-in-your-mouth kachoris at Sadar Bazaar. For a touch of luxury, dine at one of the rooftop restaurants overlooking the city lights.
No trip to Raipur is complete without experiencing its vibrant cultural scene. Catch a performance of traditional Chhattisgarhi folk dances at the Naya Raipur Amphitheatre, or visit the State Museum to learn about the region’s rich history. And don’t miss the chance to witness the spectacular display of lights and fireworks during Diwali, the Festival of Lights.
