India, Pushkar

Try and time your visit with the Camel Festival. More camels in one place than you'll ever see in your life. Prices skyrocket but there are still some places that are reasonable.

See people bathing and praying at the ghats. Pushkar has strict rules. No alcohol, no non-vegetarian food including eggs and no holding hands or embracing in public!

Have a fresh fruit juice from one of the many roadside vendors. Have sundowners at the Sunset Cafe right on the lake. There's also a place that does a buffet for 50 rupees on the way to the Sunset Cafe. Loads of food and very good for very little money. Don't have the Becks 'beer' though if you spot it. It's non-alcoholic.

See the Brahma Temple, the only one in India dedicated to Brahma.
