entering the premise either throughout the year or on specific

This temple is the only temple in the whole world dedicated to Lord
Brahma. It is situated in Pushkar, Rajasthan, which is enclosed with the
Pushkar Lake. Legends say that Lord Brahma wanted to perform a yagna at
the Pushkar lake, for which his wife Goddess Saraswati couldn’t reach
on time. Therefore, Lord Brahma married Goddess Gayatri in order to
complete the rituals and when Parvati saw this, she got furious and
cursed the temple saying no married men will be allowed in the inner
sanctum of the temple, or he could put his marital life at risk.
