Kurukshetra and Patiala Heritage Run

Delhi · Kurukshetra · Patiala · Kapurthala · Delhi·
TOUR RATING
New on Evynx

A Delhi loop pairing Mahabharata Kurukshetra with Patiala's Sikh royal architecture.

About this tour

A three-day private loop from Delhi along the Grand Trunk Road, tracing two very different chapters of the north - the mythological heartland of Kurukshetra in Haryana and the princely Sikh city of Patiala in Punjab, closing in French-inspired Kapurthala. Kurukshetra opens it with the sacred banyan at Jyotisar, where Krishna is said to have spoken the Bhagavad Gita to Arjuna, the three-kilometre tank of Brahma Sarovar, and the Sri Krishna Museum. Patiala fills the middle day: the ten-acre Qila Mubarak with its Late-Mughal painted chambers, the lakeside Sheesh Mahal of mirrors and European glass, and a private Phulkari showing with a family of artisans. The last morning reaches Kapurthala, the 'Paris of Punjab', for the Jagatjit Palace grounds and the Moorish Mosque, modelled on the Grand Mosque of Marrakesh. A private, flexible-date heritage loop for travellers after the epic and the royal north.

Highlights

  • Jyotisar, Kurukshetra - the sacred banyan where Krishna recited the Bhagavad Gita to Arjuna
