Kurukshetra Panorama and Science Centre

Kurukshetra Panorama and Science Centre is a museum in Thanesar that presents science and history through interactive displays spread across multiple floors. The exhibitions feature educational programs and detailed panoramic paintings alongside scientific demonstrations.

The museum opened in 2001 and centers on the Battle of Kurukshetra with detailed paintings depicting scenes from the Mahabharata. This ancient conflict and the stories of the epic shaped the collections and character of this place.

The center links traditional Indian knowledge systems with contemporary scientific thought, presenting this connection through its collections and displays. Visitors can observe how ancient understanding and modern research intersect throughout the space.

Plan your visit during daylight hours, as natural light best reveals the panoramic paintings and exhibits. Guided tours and educational programs are available on site, but be aware that not all areas have full accessibility.

A dedicated Dinosaur Enclave features prehistoric exhibits that let visitors explore ancient life forms in detail. The Taramandal Show offers astronomical presentations that provide an unexpected focus on the night sky.
