Pushkar Bagh is a boutique heritage resort outside Pushkar, designed like a traditional Rajasthani village with cottages and tents set in a scenic garden. Perfect for exploring Pushkar's lake and Brahma Temple, camel safaris, and the famous Pushkar Camel Fair.
Pushkar Bagh is a boutique heritage resort in Ganahera Village on the Motisar Link Road, approximately 3 kilometres from central Pushkar in Rajasthan, India. The property lies behind Pushkar Railway Station amid the Aravalli Hills, offering a tranquil rural retreat with easy access to the town's sacred lake and temples. Visitors come primarily to see the Brahma Temple — one of the few temples in India dedicated to Lord Brahma — and to experience the annual Pushkar Camel Fair, held each November during the Kartik Purnima period.
The resort's architecture draws from traditional Rajasthani heritage design, built in pink sandstone with hand-carved facades and landscaped gardens evoking the aesthetic of a historic Rajput village. Accommodation comprises 22 cottages and 8 luxury tents across four categories: Cottage, Luxury Cottage, Luxury Room, and Luxury Tent. Cottages are furnished with king-sized or twin beds in a classical décor scheme; the luxury tents provide a glamping-style stay within the garden grounds.
Three dining venues serve guests on the property. Surya Mahal handles full multi-cuisine meals; Risala operates around the clock as a coffee shop for light bites; and Nasha, the resort bar, is one of the few legally permitted alcohol venues near Pushkar, which enforces a town-wide ban on meat and liquor due to its status as a sacred Hindu pilgrimage site. Special dining experiences include gala dinners and a dinner-at-the-dunes outing at sunset in the surrounding landscape.
Facilities include a swimming pool, yoga deck, camel safari arrangements, and bicycle rental. Heritage village safaris organised by the resort allow guests to explore surrounding rural settlements on foot or camelback. The property is recognised among the top heritage hotels in Rajasthan and suits couples, families, and solo travellers seeking cultural immersion in Pushkar alongside comfortable resort amenities.

Tips for visiting

- Bicycle rental from the resort is the easiest way to reach Pushkar Lake and the Brahma Temple, with a ride of around 10 to 15 minutes from the property.
- The dinner-at-the-dunes experience must be arranged at reception at least one day ahead and is subject to weather and group size.
- Sunrise yoga sessions on the resort deck vary by season; confirm the weekly schedule at check-in the evening before.

Frequently asked questions
How far is Pushkar Bagh from Pushkar Lake and the Brahma Temple?
The resort is approximately 3 kilometres from central Pushkar, placing the Brahma Temple and the sacred lake within a 10–15 minute bicycle ride or a short auto-rickshaw journey from the property.
Does the resort serve alcohol?
Yes — the resort bar Nasha is permitted to serve alcohol. Pushkar town maintains a complete ban on alcohol and meat due to its status as a Hindu pilgrimage site, so the resort bar is one of the very few legal options in the area.
What accommodation types are available at Pushkar Bagh?
The resort offers four categories: standard Cottage, Luxury Cottage, Luxury Room, and Luxury Tent. The tents are fully furnished glamping-style units within the garden and are particularly popular during the cooler months from October to February.
Is Pushkar Bagh well-positioned for the annual Camel Fair?
Yes — the resort is one of the most frequently used bases for the Pushkar Camel Fair held each November. Booking two to three months in advance is strongly recommended, as accommodation in and around Pushkar fills completely during the fair period.
