According to Hindu mythology, the gods released a swan with a lotus in its beak from the Swarg or heaven. The place where the swan would drop the lotus would be the place where Lord Brahma would perform a grand yagna. Pushkar was that place, and it came to be called Pushkar ever since. Pushkar is 14 km from Ajmer and revered as one of the five 'Dhams' the must visit pilgrimage spots for the Hindus.
