KARTIKEYA TEMPLE

Located at Pehowa, 27 km towards west of Kurukshetra. There are many ‘tirthas’,’ ghats’ and temples in and around Pehowa. The temple for God Kartikeya (son of God Shiva and Goddess Parvati) is built at this site. According to legend, Lord Krishna made Yudhishthira light two lamps for the 18 lakh warriors who died in the Battle of Mahabharata. These lamps flank the temple and it is believed that they have been continuously lit since then.
