Pushkar is the only temple town in the world where there is a temple dedicated to Lord Brahma. Lakhs of people congregate here for a dip in the Pushkar lake, especially on the day of Kartik Purnima. But Pushkar is more than just a pilgrim town. In November, every year, in the days leading up to Kartik Purnima, the temple town comes alive as it hosts what used to be a fair for animal trade. But now Pushkar Fair is one of Rajasthan's most popular cultural events.
