Ajaypal ji temple is located 10kms from Pushkar. Raja Ajay Pal, the founder of Ajmer City, founded this temple in 11th century AC. The temple is surrounded on all sides by boulders of marble which makes the site amazingly beautiful. The drive to Ajaypal ji is one of the most scenic drives around Pushkar. It passes through the forest for initial 3kms which is replaced by sand dunes and then the valley surrounded by the hills. Drive through strikingly beautiful landscapes and small villages. You might as well want to stop and spend some time with simple villagers talking and clicking away. Most of the times when I do so, I am offered tea and local snacks. A mud house, a huge veranda, a well, giggling kids, smiling ladies in their vibrant attire busy with house chores and cattle is what a typical home will comprise of. And men folk with colourful turbans can be seen sitting on a platform below a tree having hookah and chatting.Rent a motor bike or a scooter from the Pushkar market; look for the Bitumen road leading from the base of Savitri hill that takes you towards Kharekdi village. This road will lead you to Ajaypal ji Temple. Rainy season (August- October) is the best time for this drive when the greenery is at its best and you can see springs, streams and waterfalls all through the drive.
