The holy town of Pushkar in Rajasthan is visited by thousands of devotees every year. Pushkar is known for being home to the only temple of Lord Brahma in the world. This picturesque pilgrimage has a vibrant culture and takes you back into some significant chapters from the history of Rajasthan. Numerous temples, fairs, forts, and palaces are dotted in Pushkar which make this place stand out in Rajasthan.
Jagatpita Brahma Temple is undoubtedly the most popular temple in Pushkar. It was built in the 14th century using marble and stone. Lord Brahma is the main deity of the temple who is worshipped by every local here. Many devotees can be seen taking a dip into the holy waters of the Pushkar Lake which has over 50 bathing Ghats. Over 400 temples edge this lake and it is also known for hosting the very popular Pushkar Fair. Also, visit the Varah Temple which is one of the oldest and most popular temples here. This temple is dedicated to Varaha and has a remarkable historical tale linked to it which says that Lord Shiva turned himself into a wild boar and visited earth to kill the heinous demon Hirnayaksh. Savitri Temple of Pushkar also won great popularity not only due to its spirituality but also due to the nature sprawling around it. The walk to the temple is beautiful and shows bird’s eye views of the surrounding areas. For some architectural wonder, visit the Ramavaikunth Temple built in the 20th century. The temple showcases over 300 beautifully sculpted images of the Hindu Gods.
The best time to visit Pushkar is during the annual Pushkar Mela which turns this town into a magical place oozing Rajasthani cultures. This is the biggest camel and cattle trading festival where you can experience all the wonders of Rajasthan under one horizon.
