Pushkar

Pushkar, about 145km (3-3.5 hours) from Jaipur via the Ajmer highway, is a lakeside pilgrim town built around one of India's few temples to Brahma, along with the Pushkar Lake ghats and a lively bazaar. It's a common single-day round trip from Jaipur, often paired with the Ajmer Dargah on the way.
