Saraswati Tiratha, Kurukshetra, Haryana India

This tirath is located 26 kilometres from Kurukshetra in Pehowa town. This is one of the supreme pilgrimages dedicated to sarasvati the Vedic river. Accoriding to Mahabharata and Vaman Purana, Kurukshetra was located on the south of Saraswati. Presently, however, the tirath is noted for its association with Pind daan or offering made to the departed souls. Here lies a huge tank called Saraswati tirath where thousands of people come to offer ‘Shradha’ for their ancestral soul.
