Dawn at Pushkar Lake

Pushkar Lake is one of the five sacred pilgrimage sites for devout Hindus. According to Hindu theology, the pond was formed by the tears of Lord Shiva when his consort, Sati, passed. The story goes that when Sati died, Shiva cried so much and for so long, that his tears created two holy ponds – one at Pushkar the other at Ketaksha in Pakistan. Pushkar, India.
