PUSHKAR


Ghats ̈ GHAT
Fifty-two bathing ghats surround the lake,
where pilgrims bathe in the sacred waters.
If you wish to join them, do it with respect.
Remember, this is a holy place: remove your
shoes, and don’t smoke, kid around or take
photographs.

Some ghats have particular importance:
Vishnu appeared at Varah ̈Ghat in the form
of a boar, Brahma bathed at Brahma ̈Ghat,
and Gandhi’s ashes were sprinkled at Gan-
dhi ̈Ghat (formerly Gau Ghat).
