Pushkar Resorts - Reviews and Rates

Well it was outta Updiapur on the local bus for me and Melissa. We had paid a bit more (well like 4 quid for a 8 hour journey!!) so the bus was relatively comfortable with seats and then little cabins above for people to sleep in - the locals seemed to cram 3 or 4 people into these little claustrophobic spaces. About 2 hours into the journey we ...

Pushkar is a small town that is pretty much based on tourism. It began as a Hindu holy place, where brahma dropped a lotus flower to the earth and a lake formed (as legend has it). A town was built around this lake, and when tourists discovered this calm, holy enclave, so close to the main transit city of Ajmer, they moved in. Now, the town is p...

Pushkar set " une mignonne petite ville blanche"voir Routard 2007 ville de pelerinage pour les indiens qui debarques des autobus a raison de 2000 par jour pour aller au temple Brahma. Cela fait qu' il y a une ambiance de kermesse avec bien sur toutes les boutiques souvenirs du coin.

We arrived into Pushkar as the sun was setting, and decided to go once again with our drivers recommendation for accomodation. Both my aunt and myself were getting itchy to leave our 'chaparone' behind, so once we were checked in, we gave him the night off, and headed into town. Pushkar is most known for being a very holy city on a lake, that at...

The pushy 'priests' of Pushkar... Hired an old Ambassador taxi from Bundi to Pushkar - 4 and half hrs - almost didn't make it and drove at about 30km/hr for the last 2hrs. Our Bundi Haveli hotel owners suggested we try Inn Seventh Heaven - another renovated Haveli - and it's great! More like a big, whitewashed Spanish villa with lots of charm - ...

Where to begin? Much has happened since my last entry from Manali, i am now many miles away, now travelling solo as Simon has rejoined the student life, in the heat of Rajastan in a quaint but very touristy village known as Pushkar. My French is improving daily as i've been hanging out with 5 French people, two of who i've met previously in Delh...

First a rant :)..... Why is that in a country so obviously religious and conservative on social behaviour, do westerners PERSIST in ignoring the perfectly reasonable request to dress appropriately and behave appropriately in public ???? I dont get it! In this town, i've hardly seen a single westerner dressed modestly. They insist on swanning aro...

We got into Pushkar in the afternoon. This place is one of the holiest places in Rajastan. The lake here is believed to have been formed when Brahma dropped a lotus flower. There are ghats, places dedicated for bathing in the lake, in front of temples that line the edge of the lake. We sat around that evening and watched the sunset from a cafe o...

Hello again everyone, It's been another eventful week or so since I last wrote (time flies by and takes forever as well). Pushkar, Inida-awesome pilgrimage town, very small by India standards and quite low key. We found ourselves a little embarassed for being unecessarily rude at times (the crowds of beggars, touts selling junk, drugs, hotels, ...

Put on your fancy turban, cause its time to party! With just a short stop through Delhi we were on our way to the desert and the Pushkar camel fair. Alex and I opted to take the easy way out and rented a car with a driver to take us around the state of Rajasthan. As we exited the travel agency, a short chubby man got out of a pinto-like vehicle ...
