Pushkar Holi Celebration
About The Trip
The captivating annual camel trading fair, "Pushkar Mela," is just one of the reasons a trip to Pushkar, India, can end up on your bucket list. Pushkar, Rajasthan, is a culturally diverse place where you may experience an entirely new perspective on India
Ajmer's neighbour and top tourist destination in Rajasthan is Pushkar, which is situated to the northwest of Ajmer.
In addition to having a rich cultural heritage, Pushkar also holds a significant place in Hindu mythology. According to legend, Lord Bramha accidentally spilled a lotus flower on the earth as the universe was being created, and the spot where the flower landed was given the name "Pushkar," which means the Lotus flower itself.
Everyone who lives in Delhi, NCR, will find a weekend trip to Pushkar to be a rejuvenating experience. The 418 km that separate Pushkar from Delhi provides for a pleasant drive as well when travelling to Pushkar from Delhi.
At Pushkar, there are numerous events and things to do. Other examples of the same are going to sites, forts, and temples. Pushkar is renowned for its view of the Pushkar Lake and the tranquilly of the Brahma temple, the only one of its kind in the entire world. These attractions are in addition to the Pushkar Festival.
Pushkar is best visited between November and March, when the temperature is pleasant and there is a nice breeze in the air. Yet even though Pushkar is accessible throughout the year, visitors should keep in mind the festival's dates, which they shouldn't exclude from their travel plans.
