of the capital to Delhi in 1634 by Shah Jahan, its
architectural wealth has secured its place on the
international map.

its history, lifestyles and architecture.

between Lord Brahma and a demon named Vajra Nabh. After

Pushkar leading to the creation of the three lakes of
Pushkar. Recorded history shows that Pushkar was a
favorite retreat of the Mughal rulers, which was later

the Mughal rule. The Scindias handed over the city to the
British thus making Pushkar one of the few places in
Rajasthan to be under direct British control, until
