Welcome to the Sacred Lake Town
Pushkar feels small, spiritual, and lively at the same time. The town grows around a holy lake surrounded by ghats where pilgrims come to pray and sit quietly by the water. Narrow lanes are lined with cafés, temples, and colorful shops. You’ll hear temple bells, chants in the evening, and music from rooftop restaurants. Pushkar is loved by both spiritual travelers and those who simply enjoy calm places with character.
Must-Visit Attractions in Pushkar
Pushkar Lake
Pushkar Lake is the heart of the town. Many legends are connected to it and pilgrims consider its waters sacred. Walk around the ghats, sit by the steps, and watch daily rituals taking place. The evening aarti around the lake is especially peaceful.
Brahma Temple
This is one of the very few temples in the world dedicated to Lord Brahma. The red spire and marble steps make it easy to spot. Inside, the atmosphere is simple and spiritual, and many visitors come here after spending time at the lake.
Savitri Temple
Located on a hilltop, the Savitri Temple gives one of the best views of Pushkar. You can hike up the hill or take a ropeway. The sunrise and sunset from here look beautiful, with the town and desert spread out below.
Varaha Temple
This ancient temple is dedicated to the Varaha (boar) incarnation of Lord Vishnu. It is quieter than the Brahma Temple and offers a glimpse into Pushkar’s deep mythological history.
