Brahma Sarovar in Thanesar, in the state of Haryana in North India. Edit
Detail InformationEdit
Brahma Sarovar is a water tank sacred to the Dharmic religions in Thanesar, in the state of Haryana in North India. Though Kurukshetra in itself has its own place in the history and hence Brahma sarovar. The water tank is dedicated to Lord Shiva. Today Brahma Sarovar has been renovated. It is 1800 feet long and 1400 feet broad. Lord Brahma is said to have created the universe from this land. Just in the vicinity of this sacred place are the Birla Gita Mandir and Baba Nath’s haveli. The sight of Kurukshetra is exquisite especially in winters when birds migrate from ever different landmasses to take a dip in the waters. This beautiful looks all the attractive during the ‘Deep Daan’ and Aarti during Gita Jayanti in the later November and early December.
