Gayatri Mata Temple (Pap-Mochani) — Attraction in Rajasthan

I went here for the sunset and damn, I was left mesmerized. I ended up spending a good 3 hours here, till the time of the evening prayer.

The place is very calming and soothing. It's a short 15 minutes hike on average. And the view is tremendous. I could see the entire town along with the majestic Pushkar lake.

There were only 3 people when I went here, and it was really peaceful. Soothing songs were playing at the temple. And I also had a conversation with the local priest, who's a friendly young man. He shared the history and cultural as well as religious importance of Pushkar.

Overall, I had a really beautiful time here and I've heard that the sunrise from here is...
