Pap Mochini temple in Pushkar is located on the Northern peak of the city. This is considered to be the sacred temple of Hindus where all sins are absolved. The temple is dedicated to “Gayatri” the Gujjar girl whom Brahma married to perform a Yagna instead of waiting for his wife Savitri. The temple is also known as Gayatri Peeth. The temple offers the most spectacular and panoramic view of Pushkar Town. There is also a mythological association to this temple. Lord Krishna once cursed Ashwathama, a character in the Indian Epic, Mahabharata, to roam about in the earth for Three Thousand Years. In order to seek salvation, his soul comes to the Pap Mochini Temple in Rajasthan once in a year.
