Ablauf

1. According to Hindu scriptures, the sacred Pushkar Lake is described as ‘Tirtha Raj’, the king of all pilgrimage sites. No pilgrimage is considered to be complete without a dip in in the holy Pushkar Lake. Semi-circular in shape and about 8-10 metres deep, Pushkar Lake is surrounded by 52 bathing ghats and over 400 temples and is truly a magnificent sight to behold.

   3 Std.

2. Nestled in the picturesque Pushkar valley beyond the Nangaparvat and Anasagar Lake, the Brahma temple holds a special place in the hearts of Indians. It is the only temple in the world dedicated to Lord Brahma. Built with marble and decorated with silver coins, this temple can be identified by its red spire and the image of a swan (considered sacred to Lord Brahma). The chaturmukhi (four faced) idol of Lord Brahma is housed in the inner sanctum. A marble statue of the sun god stands sentinel at the temple. Interestingly, while all the gods are shown bare footed, Surya is shown wearing ancient warrior’s boots.

   1 Std.

3. Dedicated to Lord Brahma's first wife, Goddess Savitri, this temple is situated on a hillock right behind the Brahma temple. While climbing the long series of steps leading to the temple, one can catch a panoramic view of the lake, surrounding temples and sand dunes. The presence of the only Brahma Temple in Pushkar is the outcome of Savitri’s curse to Brahma for marrying another Goddess, Gayatri, while starting his yagna in Pushkar.

About Jaipur

Jaipur, die Rosa Stadt Rajasthans, ist eine königliche Hauptstadt aus Forts, Palästen und Basaren vor den schroffen Aravalli-Hügeln.

Die Mauern der Altstadt umschließen ein Raster terrakottarosa gestrichener Straßen, im 18. Jahrhundert von Maharadscha Sawai Jai Singh II. angelegt. In ihrer Mitte verbindet der Stadtpalast Rajputen- und Mogulstil, die wabenförmige Fassade des Hawa Mahal, des Palasts der Winde, blickt auf die Straße hinab, und die riesigen astronomischen Instrumente von Jantar Mantar verfolgen noch immer die Sonne.

Top-ranked sights in Jaipur: Palace of Wind (Hawa Mahal), City Palace, Jal Mahal (Water Palace).
