Kurukshetra has been, the fountainhead, as it were, of Hinduism. This was the place, where the glorious epic battle of the Mahabharata was fought. Kurukshetra is dotted with about 360 places of pilgrimage, intrinsically related to the Mahabharata. Principal amongst the holy water tanks of this revered land, is the Brahma Sarovar. The main attraction of this tank, is the small temple built at its very centre. Another sacred water tank is the Sannihit Tank. Beside this lake, are temples of Lord Vishnu, Lord Hanuman and Goddess Durga. The Krishna Museum has beautiful wooden carvings, and other images depicting the various phases of Lord Krishna's life. The Gurudwara dedicated to Guru Hargobindji, the sixth Guru of the Sikhs, is near the Sannihit Tank.
