Travel Diaries Episode #2 - Feeding Pigeons at Jaipur (Rajasthan, India)

It was my 2nd day at Jaipur and since I spent most of my childhood in this beautiful Pink City, I wanted to relive some of the memories I had.

Therefore, I decided to head to the places I visited the most during my childhood days.

Place: Central Park, Jaipur

This is the biggest public park in Jaipur where you can spend good time with your loved ones. The lush green trees, the delightful rich green grass and the cool breeze will definitely send happy chemicals up your brain. I decided to walk barefoot on the grass (I think it's kind of healing to walk on grass that way).
Also, it felt so nostalgic! Personally, my childhood memories made this experience even more beautiful.

I remember a conversation between me and my sibling back then-

Bro: "What you do wanna become when you grow up?"

Me: "I want to become a pigeon"

Bro: "Haha! Their life span is really short"

Me: "But they get to fly!"

Anyway, I don't wanna drift further away from the title "Feeding Pigeons".
So, I bought a bowl full of grains from the lady seller outside the Central Park and fed those little guys all of it. At one moment, I actually scared them away and I was left alone with all the grains but thankfully, they did come back later!

I have attached a small video for this anecdote.
