Main Shopping Center in Madhya Pradesh
Maheshwar
Maheshwari sarees are the main draw. Rani Ahilyabai is credited with introducing this uniquely woven saree 250 years ago. The fabric used id cotton and the saree has a plain bosy, at times with stripes or checks in variable patterns. Leaf and floral patterns decorate the borders, which are reversible ('known as bugdi'). The 'pallu' is particularly distinctive with five stripes, three coloured and two white running alternating across its width.
Mandu
Mandu is basically a historical place which is surrounded by forests and natural beauty. Being a very small city it does not offer much to purchase and shopping malls are absent. Nevertheless, one can buy some local handicrafts and items made in the region. These items make good souvenirs and decorative pieces. Items made from gold and silver are particularly popular among the tourist as well as the native people. One can always go for some handloom cloths and some colourful garments. Being part of Vindhya range (Malwa), the influence of Vindhyachal (Malwa) tribal art is clearly visible in on the handicrafts and other items. One can also look for leather work.
Pachmarhi
As such there are no shopping Malls in Pachmarhi but one can get good items to purchase from shops around the bus stand. Pachmarhi is famous for items made from jute and marble decorative pieces.
