Old Rangji Temple Pushkar Rajasthan is a famous temple where ant tourists flock every year to pay their homage to the deities. Lord Rangji Temple speaks about Lord Rangji who is believed to be the incarnation of lord Vishnu. Old Rangji Temple was built in 1823 by Seth Puran Mal Ganeriwal of Hyderabad. Old Rangji Temple Pushkar is exclusive as here you can find the confluence of South Indian style (Dravid), Rajput style and Mughal style of architecture. The gracious Old Rangji Temple is very noticeable. It has a high rising Gopuram archetypal of southern India. #Amalgamation #Rajput #Dravid #RangnathTemple #Heritage #Historic #Beaut #Beautiful #Architecture #Gopuram #Entrance #Pushkar #PushkarDiaries #PushkarJournal #Rajasthan #India #IncredibleIndia #Wanderer #Wanderlust #Travel #Traveller #Traveler #TravelLog #TravelDiaries #Travelogue (at Pushkar)

The view of the Shikhar Jagatpita Brahma Mandir (जगत्-पिता ब्रह्मा मंदिर) is a Hindu temple situated at Pushkar in the Indian state of Rajasthan, close to the sacred Pushkar Lake to which its legend has an indelible link. The temple is one of very few existing temples dedicated to the Hindu creator-god Brahma in India and remains the most prominent among them. Although the present temple structure dates to the 14th century, the temple is believed to be 2000 years old. The temple is mainly built of marble and stone stabs. It has a distinct red pinnacle (shikhara) and a hamsa bird motif. The temple sanctum sanctorum holds the central images of Brahma and his second consort Gayatri. The temple is governed by the Sanyasi (ascetic) sect priesthood. On Kartik Poornima, a festival dedicated to Brahma is held when large number of pilgrims visit the temple, after bathing in the sacred lake. (at Brahma Temple, Pushkar)

A story tells of a ninth-century Rajput king, Nahar Rao Parihar of Mandore, chasing a white boar to the lake shore on a hunting expedition. In order to quench his thirst, he dipped his hand into the lake and was astonished to see that the Leukoderma marks on his hand had disappeared. Impressed with the sacred curative nature of the lake, he got the lake restored to its glory. After discovering the curative characteristics of the lake water, people have since visited the lake to take a holy dip and cure themselves of skin problems. This is one of the many stories which I found while looking for the religious and historical mapping for the Pushkar lake. Something is indeed very divine and sacred about this place. #Tales #Historic #Heritage #WaterBody #Holy #Sacred #FolkTales #TimeGoneBy #Me #Water #Divine #KartikPoornima #PushkarGhat #Pushkar #PushkarDiaries #PushkarJournal #Rajasthan #India #IncredibleIndia #Wanderer #Wanderlust #Travel #Traveler #TravelLog #Traveller #Travelogue #TravelDiaries (at Pushkar Lake)
