Pushkar Tour Package

Visitor's note about Pushkar
I was looking for tranquility and peace in a serene place and Pushkar offered me just the same. The place was full of exciting surprises but it was the lake and the surrounding temples that attracted me the most. Though I had a great time here but next time I would prefer to come here in November, during the Cattle Fair when the entire town comes alive.

Though a small town, Pushkar attracts countless tourists from every corner of the world due its tranquil environment and friendly people.

PLACES OF INTEREST IN PUSHKAR

The Pushkar Lake
As per Hindu mythology, the lotus slipped out from Lord Brahma's hand, struck the earth, water issued forth and the lake was created. The clear still water of the lake narrated the divinity associated with it. Many ghats extend down to the water to allow pilgrims to ritually bathe. And the sound of mantras coming from countless temples located around the lake was further adding to its divinity.

Brahma Temple of Pushkar
The priest accompanying me told about Brahma Temple, the only one in the world dedicated to him. I walked towards the temple, which has a high platform on which the statue of the Lord Brahma was placed. Inside the temple there was a big verandah behind the sanctum sanctorum with images of several other deities.
