1-kms from Ajmer (132 kms from Jaipur) on the edge of
the desert lies the tiny tranquil town of Pushkar along
the bank of the picturesque Pushkar Lake. This is an
important pilgrimage spot for the Hindus, which has the
only temple of Lord Brahma in the country and one of the
few in the world. Lord Brahma is known as the creator of
the world as per the Hindu mythology. It's marked by red
spire, and over the entrance gateway is the hans, or
goose symbol, of Brahma, who is said to have personally
chosen Pushkar as its site.
The lake has a mythological significance associated with
it. According to myth, Lord Brahma was on his way to
search for a suitable place to perform a "Yagna' (a fire
sacrifice) while contemplating, a lotus fell from his
hand on the warth and water sprouted from that place.
One of them was Pushkar where Lord brahma performed "Yagna".
