Pushkar is a peaceful town with as many as 400 temples and 52 ghats encircling the Pushkar lake. These ghats were built over the years by several kings and nobles. The lake here is believed to have been created by Lord Brahma himself and has the same sanctity for Hindus as Mansarover in Tibet. Pushkar bustles with life during the joyous celebrations held on Kartik Purnima. Thousands of devotees throng the lake around the full moon day of Kartik Purnima in October-November to take a holy dip in the lake. A huge and colourful cattle fair - the Pushkar Fair is also held during this time. Dance, music and colourful shops spring up during this fair. The town comes alive with the folk people clad in vibrant colours and mouth watering delicaies which are on sale. A host of colourful events against the backdrop of this pretty setting are also organized including attractive puppet shows, cattle auction and camel races.
