An overview of the lake and town center in Pushkar, Rajasthan, India. Every year in November thousands of Rajasthani tribal people converge in the picturesque town of Pushkar, which is also a major site for Hindu pilgrims. They come to buy and sell camels (over 50,000) and other cattle and bathe at the Pushkar lake (considered sacred by Hindus). They come for the entertaining camel races and local circuses, and to browse the local markets for camel saddles, textiles, glass bangles and silver jewelry..Photo by Suzanne Lee
