Pushkar

It is one of the oldest cities in India.

Situated at a height of 510 metres, Pushkar is surrounded by hillocks on three sides. According to legends, Lord Brahma, believed to be the creator of the Universe dropped a lotus to the ground leading
to the immediate creation of a lake. He then decided to name the place after the flower, and thus the name, Pushkar. The city of Pushkar is home to the only temple dedicated to Lord Brahma in the whole world. Hindus consider a journey to Pushkar to be the ultimate pilgrimage that must be undertaken to attain salvation.
