Photographer’s Note

Pushkar is one of the oldest cities of India. The date of its actual origin is not known, but legend associates Lord Brahma with its creation. It is mentioned that Brahma performed penance here for 60,000 years to have glimpse of Radha Krishna.

Pushkar boasts of temples, though not many can be considered very old since many were destroyed by a Mogul ruler and subsequently rebuilt.
