Whether you are a believer in God or non-believer, ‘The Abode of God’, as Haryana is famously referred to, might make you think if there is a god, he might probably be here. The land is so ancient, which can be gauged by the fact that this was the place where Veda Vyasa, the saint, wrote the famous epic Mahabharata. The place gains more importance for those following religious faith as being the land where Lord Krishna is said to have uttered the famous saying, “Do your duty and be detached from results” to Arjuna, one of the Pandava brothers on the eve of Mahabharata war.
Haryana has more to offer. Also known as the Green Land of India, Haryana not only has a rich past but a great present and a promising future too. This 16th largest state in India ranks amongst the leading industrialized states in the country. It is a major producer and supplier of agricultural products in India. Here are the leading attractions in the land you would never want to miss on your tour to Haryana.
1. Chandigarh

Haryana, the ancient land, is so compelling that you are drawn towards every one of its attractions. It is just impossible for one to overlook any of the tourist destinations here. But as always, time plays spoilsport and hence I could not say that I covered the state enough to include all tourist spots here. I would be glad to hear from you if you have more to add about Haryana’s attractions.
