Pushkar
Pushkar's sacred lake is surrounded by 52 ghats where pilgrims perform ritual bathing and flower offerings at sunrise in a ceremony that's been practiced for thousands of years. The atmosphere at dawn — with priests chanting, the lake turning gold, and the smell of marigolds in the air — is profoundly moving.
Priests on the ghat will offer to perform a puja for you — agree on the donation amount before the ceremony begins.
