Pushkar - Carnival (Mela) Street Scenes

22-November-2012: Being the annual "Camel Fair" time, Pushkar was crowded with Camel and Cattle traders, Pilgrims from all-over India and a huge number of foreigners- all here to enjoy the fun-filled atmosphere prevailing in this town.

I roamed around for the whole day at the Camel & Cattle Fair on the sand dunes and along Pushkar streets lined with shops selling a variety of goods. These pictures capture people and the carnival atmosphere of Pushkar.
