A small sleepy town in the heart of
Rajasthan, Pushkar gets its worldwide acclaim for two reasons - Asia’s
largest camel fair is held here annually and it is here that the only
temple dedicated to the Hindu God - Brahma (The Creator) is located. This
peaceful town comes alive every year during the month of Kartik – (October
& November)...
Pushkar is an enchanting small town
located exactly on the edge of the desert and is situated just 11 kms from
Ajmer, but separated from it by Nag Pahar, the Snake mountain. The town
frequently visited by the devotees lies to the side of the small Pushkar
Lake with its multitudes of bathing ghats and temples. Pushkar is a very
important pilgrimage centre for the Hindus and is thronged by plethora of
sadhus and devotees.
Pushkar is recognised in the country for its Camel Fair which takes place
here each October/November. This huge assembly of camels, cattle,
livestock traders, pilgrims, tourists and film-makers is one of the
planet's most incredible events. Its an event that should not be missed.
Pushkar is a "City of Temples" , though not as much old but in number as
generally claimed. The Brahma Temple is the most famous temple in the town
and is said to be the only dedicated to Lord Brahma in India. A red spire
marks the temple, and over the entrance gateway is the Hans (goose), the
symbol of Brahma who is said to have personally chosen Pushkar as his
place.
Temple of Savitri, the wife of Lord Brahma, is situated on a hill top and
is another important temple here. It takes a one-hour trek to reach the
temple which presents a beautiful view of Pushkar Lake in the morning.
Other major places to visit in Pushkar are numerous ghats that run down
the lake.
Pushkar is a quaint little town, which time seems to have forgotten. The
focus point is a lake surrounded on all sides by 52 ghats (wide steps
leading to the waters edge). The town has over 400 temples of which the
famous ones are the Brahma Temple, the Rangji Temple (with a decidedly
South India flavor) and the Savitri Temple, built atop a hill. The other
important temples are those dedicated to Mahadev, Badri Narayan, Gayatri
and Varaha.
When visiting Pushkar a visit to the Brahma temple and the lake is a must.
At the lake, you can witness various prayer ceremonies and the holy bath
by the pilgrim who come from all over India. The priests at Pushkar are
supposed to maintain the genealogical records of all Hindu families and
many pilgrims come to visit their priest and get their "records" updated.
You can watch the traditional Aarti being performed in the evening. At
sunset, you can watch the lights of the temples around the lake come on
one after another accompanied by Shlokas sung melodiously by priests at
the different temples.
A visit to the Savtri temple should be undertaken by those ready for a
steep uphill walk. Though once at the top, the view of Pushkar Lake and
surrounding landscape is simply magical.
On request a special day time Aarti service with a short prayer ceremony
or an evening Diya Arti Service (with small floating candles) can be
organized.
