Outstation Cab Route
Faridabad to Pushkar Taxi Service
Faridabad to Pushkar is a long day on NH48 through Rajasthan, usually paired with a stop in Jaipur or Ajmer given how far it is.
Route Overview
Faridabad to Pushkar by Road
From Faridabad the cab joins NH48 with a relatively short approach through Gurgaon, running via Behror, Neemrana, Kotputli and Jaipur before the final stretch to Pushkar via Ajmer.
Many travellers treat Pushkar as an extension of a Jaipur trip rather than a separate destination. Breaking the journey with a night in Jaipur makes the whole trip considerably more comfortable.
Pushkar itself is compact and largely walkable once you arrive, built around its lake and the many ghats surrounding it. The town gets extremely crowded during the Pushkar Camel Fair, usually in October or November.

Places to Visit
Top Attractions in Pushkar
- Pushkar Lake — Encircled by 52 ghats, this sacred lake is said to have appeared where a lotus petal dropped by Brahma fell, and it remains the spiritual centre that the rest of Pushkar is organised around. An early visit to the ghats, before the day's heat sets in, generally offers the calmest experience.
- Brahma Temple — This temple is one of only a handful anywhere dedicated specifically to Brahma, making it a distinctly unusual stop given how rarely the creator deity receives a primary temple elsewhere in India. That rarity is a big part of what draws visitors here.
- Pushkar Bazaar — Known for its silver jewellery, textiles and leather goods, this market street is the commercial heart of the town, packed with closely spaced stalls and shops. It's a place to spend an unhurried hour or two rather than a quick, single sight to check off.
- Savitri Temple — Set on a hill above Pushkar, this temple overlooks both the town and its lake, and can be reached by ropeway or on foot for those who'd rather trek up. The panoramic view over the desert landscape is the main reason to make the climb.
