The Pushkar “camel & cattle fair” – a festival of sound and colour – is held annually on the banks of Lake Pushkar. Traders and pilgrims flock to Pushkar for livestock trading, camel racing, and other festivities; and to the westerners, it is perhaps, one of India’s most famous fairs. Situated at the edge of the Thar Desert, this small place transforms itself from a peaceful, rural community, into a vast tented village with a lively, colourful and noisy market.
Pushkar Festival Date: 22 – 30 November 2020
