OVERVIEW
Pushkar is one of Rajasthan's most distinctive cultural destinations, where sacred lakes, ancient temples, colourful bazaars and desert landscapes come together in a town surrounded by the Aravalli hills. Located close to Ajmer, Pushkar is one of India's important pilgrimage destinations and is particularly renowned for the sacred Pushkar Lake and the historic Brahma Temple.
The town's spiritual character is centred around Pushkar Lake, which is surrounded by 52 ghats and hundreds of temples. The atmosphere becomes particularly evocative around sunset, when prayers and lamps illuminate the ghats and the surrounding temples.
Beyond its spiritual heritage, Pushkar offers a more experiential side of Rajasthan. Travellers can explore traditional markets, discover local crafts, experience the surrounding desert landscape and, during the annual Pushkar Fair, witness one of Rajasthan's most famous cultural gatherings. Rajasthan Tourism also highlights camping, camel safaris and hot-air-balloon experiences around Pushkar.
With Rajasthan Escapes, Pushkar can be experienced beyond conventional pilgrimage tourism through carefully curated heritage walks, private cultural experiences, boutique stays, desert excursions and thoughtfully planned journeys connecting Pushkar with Jaipur, Ajmer and Jodhpur.
