About Gayatri Mata Temple
Nestled in the heart of Pushkar, the Gayatri Mata Temple is a captivating site steeped in mythological significance. Its story traces back to the divine tale of Lord Brahma and his marriage to Savitri, an untouchable girl, during the absence of his wife Gayatri. In a fit of anger and ignorance, Gayatri cursed Brahma, decreeing that he would only be worshipped in Pushkar. Consequently, the Gayatri Mata Temple became the exclusive abode for the reverence of Lord Brahma and Goddess Gayatri together.
This historic temple not only narrates a compelling myth but also stands as a testament to architectural elegance, drawing countless tourists seeking both spiritual resonance and aesthetic delight. The rich tapestry of myth and beauty interwoven at the Gayatri Mata Temple makes it a must-visit destination, embodying the cultural tapestry of Pushkar.
