Cultural Activities

Experience local culture through engaging activities at Pushkar.

A City Steeped in Myth and Majesty nestled in the heart of Rajasthan, Pushkar — meaning Blue Lotus Flower — is one of the oldest and most sacred cities in India. Revered as the King of Pilgrimage Sites, it holds deep spiritual significance for devout Hindus and curious travelers alike.
Legend says that when Sati, wife of Lord Shiva, passed away, his tears of grief gave birth to two holy ponds — one of them being the sacred Pushkar Lake. This celestial origin grants Pushkar a mystical allure that’s woven into its every temple, ghat, and grain of sand.

🕉️ Spiritual & Cultural Landmarks
- Brahma Temple: A rare marvel, this is one of the very few temples dedicated to Lord Brahma — the creator in Hindu theology. It stands as a spiritual centerpiece of the town.
- Pushkar Lake: Surrounded by 52 bathing ghats, it is believed to cleanse the soul. Pilgrims from across the country flock here to bathe in its sacred waters.

Every November, Pushkar transforms into a riot of color and tradition during the world-famous Pushkar Camel Fair.
Over 50,000 camels and livestock are brought in for trade, adorned with intricate decorations and dazzling accessories. The fair showcases Rajasthan’s vibrant rural culture through folk performances, races, art, and crafts.
