New Delhi: Pushkar is one of the five sacred dhams for Hindus. Only a few Hindu temples remain in Pushkar since most of them were destroyed by the Mughal emperor Aurangzeb.
The most important of the ones remaining is Brahma Temple. It is said to be the only temple in the world dedicated to Brahma.
It stands on a high plinth with the Marble steps leading up to the deity. A silver turtle is set on the floor facing the sanctum sanctorum or Girbha-griha.
Around the turtle the Marble floor and walls are embedded with hundreds of silver coins engraved with the names of the donors.
