Brahma Temple Standing calm on the banks of the glittering Pushkar Lake is this ancient temple. Dedicated to the Lord Brahma, the Creator of the Universe and the town’s presiding deity, this 14th century temple easily stands out from the four hundred other lakeside temples. It has the distinction of being the oldest Brahma temple in the world, as well as the only one dedicated exclusively to him.
The temple’s white steps lead up from the lake, and past the majestic white gates, devotees enter the inner chamber decorated almost exclusively in silver. Locked on three sides by the Aravalli hills, a visit to the temple is de rigueur for all visitors to Pushkar, whether you are a pilgrim or a history buff.
Estimated Visit time 40 Minutes to 1.6666666 Hours
Pushkar Lake A serene lake, glittering below the bright blue desert sky, Pushkar is one of the holiest pilgrimages in Hinduism. Said to be as old as the Vedic Purans, the lake is the center of this small holy town and draws thousands of visitors every year. The lake’s natural beauty is almost dramatic and enhanced by the 52 ghats and 400-odd temples, most painted a saintly white that surround it. The water of the lake is said to have healing powers and a dip in its holy waters is one of the five dhams of Hinduism.
Estimated Visit time 1.0 Hours to 2.0 Hours
Varah Temple One of the oldest, largest and most visited temple in Pushkar, the Varah Temple is dedicated to Lord Vishnu, the Preserver in the Holy Trinity of Hinduism. First built in the 12th century, the temple houses a beautiful statue of the God in his Varah avatar. In this his third incarnation Lord Vishnu took the form of a wild boar to protect the earth from the demon Hiranyaksha. The statue at Pushkar is anthropomorphic – a boar’s head on a man’s body. Built opulently by King Anaji Chauhan, a lot of the temple was destroyed by the Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb. Sometime in the 17th century a massive restoration was undertaken by Raja Sawai Jai Singh II of Jaipur.
Estimated Visit time 30 Minutes to 1.0 Hours
Aptaeshwar Temple Completing the Holy Trinity at Pushkar is the Aptaeshwar Temple. Dedicated to Lord Shiva the Destroyer, the Aptaeshwar temple dates back to the 12th century, built around the same time as the Varah temple. A revered and historic site, the locals believe that the temple is sinking into the lake. And indeed, all evidence suggests that slowly but surely the Shivling at Aptaeshwar Temple is descending into the earth.
Estimated Visit time 30 Minutes to 1.0 Hours
