City park and landmark

Jawahar Circle and Patrika Gate

Jawahar Circle is a large circular public park in south Jaipur, near the airport road. Patrika Gate, a colourful gateway at the park's entrance, has become a prominent contemporary photo spot. The site sits in a newer part of the city and differs from the historic gates and markets of the walled city. It is a public urban space used by residents as well as visitors.

What to know

Jawahar Circle is an easy stop if you are travelling to or from Jaipur Airport and want a short walk or a look at Patrika Gate. It can also add a contemporary design point to a heritage-focused trip. Visit with time to enjoy the park, not only to take a quick photograph at the gateway.

Good to Know

Check local opening rules and event notices before visiting. Use public paths, avoid blocking the gateway for long photo sessions and be considerate of families using the park. Heat can be intense in open areas, so carry water. Allow extra time if you are travelling onward to the airport.
