Peace. Pushkar

Pushkar, the quiet little town of eastern Rajasthan, is located 11 km from Ajmer, on the edge of a small and beautiful lake. Pushkar is a city of 400 temples and 52 bathing ghats. Pushkar prides itself on being the site of the only temple of the Hindu God of Creation, Brahma. Every November, Pushkar comes alive with the vibrancy and color of the famous Pushkar Fair and the full moon festivities at the Ghats. At other times of the year, its location at the heart of the main tourist circuit of Rajasthan, makes Pushkar the perfect destination for travellers to pause for breath and feel the magic of one of the most important pilgrimage centers in India. A visit to Pushkar will leave you with memories that will linger a lifetime.
