Harsh Ka Tila

In August 2023, I visited Raja Harsh Ka Tila. It is a historically significant place, but the government doesn't care about it. It requires proper maintenance as it is very old. The architecture was good, and the place was not crowded at all.

This is located alongside Sheikh Chili Tomb. It is an Historic Sight and it was excavated by the Archeological Survey of India Department. It is a property of Indian Government. You can visit it for free. You can also spend your complete day in this park.

Wow. An archeological gem in the heart of Kurukshetra. Excavations at various layers going on, hope to see more progess on this front.

The harsh ka tila is A amazing place situated at the kurukshetra near shekh chilli makbara. The harsh vardhan was a king of sthaneshvar in current time known as thaneshar. The place is amazing for its natural beauty their is too much greenery in the surroundings. You must visit thr place if u are visiting to the kurukshetra. Their are many historical places near the tila. Like maa bhadarkali temple, ssthaneshwatr temple, shekh chilli ka makbara. The timing to visit shekh chilli is 9 to 5 PM. After 5 PM all the places should closed for the visitors.

Raja Harsh Ka Tila is a one-kilometre-long, 750-metres-wide mound located on the outskirts of the city of Kurukshetra. The ancient mound, standing 15-18 m high above the ground, hides within itself invaluable wealth of information in the form of a variety of historical remnants belonging to periods ranging from Kushan to Mughal era. This site was excavated by Shri B.M.Pandey of Archaeological Survey of India. A few potsherds of Painted Grey Ware found from the lowest level of the site indicate the existence of a settlement before starting a continuous habitation at the site since Christian era. The excavated material ranging from Circa 1st century AD to 19th century was divided in six cultural periods.

The present town of Thanesar is located on an ancient mound. The mound 1 km long and 750 m wide known as "Harsh ka Tila" (Mound of Harsha), west of Sheikh Chilli's Tomb complex in Thanesar. It has ruins of structures built during the reign of Harsha, 7th century CE. Amongst the archaeological finds from the mound include Painted Grey Ware shards in the pre-Kushana levels and Red Polished Ware from post Gupta period.

Awesome view

Great to know about the kingdom of Smrat Harsh Vardhan here from the museums and relics at this place, probably the highest place in Thanesar.

If you come in kurukshetra than you must go there....

Childhood Playground of My Husband.....there is no chance not to like it. Still honestly speaking, if you are expecting any big Castel or Durg, than you will be disappointed. It's a small Castel, it's a Mausoleum "a Grave" from the Spiritual Teacher of Mughal Empror Dara Shikhon. But a beautifull and Peacefull place to hang around.

Very peaceful vast area , good for family picnics

I like that place. Very beautiful.

If you are in Kurukshetra and you like old buildings then you should visit this place!

Sheikh Chilli ki kabr and also an archeological museum with any intresting artifacts to see.

Awesome place to visit. Old time structure.

It's a beautiful wide 'tila' (an area that is above the height of the rest of the surrounding land), named after Harshavardhana, an ancient king of the historic town Thanesar. The tila is full of greenery - grass, shrubs and trees. You like to spend time here, alone or with your dear ones, fascinated by the peaceful environment. You are away from the hustle and bustle of the city, sitting or walking over the undulating ground. (🙏Request citizens to keep the tila clean. We should not leave here any wastes after eating. As there are no dustbins here, we should take these with ourselves to dispose off in a proper place in town.)
