Same Day: AJMER SHARIF
The Dargah Sharif of Khwaja Muddin Chishti is situated at the foot of the Taragah hill, and consists of
several white marble buildings arranged around two courtyards, including a massive gate donated by the
Nizam of Hyderabad and the Akbari Mosque, built by the Mughal emperor Shah Jahan. It contains the domed
tomb of the saint. Akbar and his queen used to come here by foot on pilgrimage from Agra every year in
observance of a vow when he prayed for a son. The large pillars called “Kose (‘Mile’) Minar”, erected at
intervals of two miles (3 km) along the entire way between Agra and Ajmer mark the places where the royal
pilgrims halted every day. It has been estimated that around 125,000 pilgrims visit the site every day.
Same Day PUSHKAR LAKE
Pushkar Lake or Pushkar Sarovar is located in the town of Pushkar. Pushkar Lake is a sacred lake of the
Hindus. Pushkar Lake is surrounded by 52 bathing ghats (a series of steps leading to the lake), where
pilgrims throng in large numbers to take a sacred bath, especially around Kartik Poornima
(October–November) when the Pushkar Fair is held. A dip in the sacred lake is believed to cleanse sins and
cure skin diseases. Over 500 Hindu temples are situated around the lake precincts.
