Places to See in Pushkar :

Brahma Temple : Brahma Temple is one of the main sites of Pushkar Pilgrimage. The legends associated with the temple of Lord Brahma, its uniqueness, its significance as a holy place, add to the beautiful settings of the temple. It is the only temple dedicated to Lord Brahma in India.

Varah Temple : Varah Temple is one of the oldest and largest temples that form a significant part of Pushkar Pilgrimage. The temple is dedicated to the incarnation of Lord Vishnu, the Varah. Lord Vishnu is the preserver according to the Hindu mythology. The pilgrims flocking to Pushkar hold the Varah Temple in reverence. The idol of Lord Vishnu in the Varah incarnation inside the temple commands respect from all. The Varah Ghat, on Pushkar Lake, near the temple is also quite popular among the pilgrims.

Pushkar Lake : Pushkar Lake is one of the major tourist attractions in Rajasthan and features on the itinerary of each and every visitor. Legend has it that the creation of the lake was the result of a lotus falling off from Lord Brahma's hand who was desperately seeking a place to carry out a religious ceremony and a fire sacrifice popularly known as a Yagna. Water immediately gushed forth from the spot and in this way lake came into being.

Holy Dip in Pushkar : Holy Dip in Pushkar Lake is considered by the Hindus to bring them good luck and ward of all sins and evils. Pilgrims turn out in hordes every year at Pushkar to take a dip in the pure waters of the lake which is believed to contain medicinal and curative powers. One such occasion when there is a major rush is that of Karthik Poornima. It falls in the month of Karthik which is roughly around October and November. This period is considered to be particularly auspicious for a dip in the lake waters.
