Meerut is a district located in Uttar Pradesh, India. It is a wonderful place if you want to look history of any period - prehistoric, ancient, medieval or modern. Of many prehistoric sites, we visited one today - Lakshagraha. It is a Mahabharata-period site, where the Pandava brothers dug out an underground tunnel to escape from the palace of wax that was meant to burn them. That tunnel is still there, which opens on the confluence of two rivers - Hindan and Krishna rivers. And there is also a stone tomb, with beautiful carvings, still intact on the top of the hill. A beautiful sight indeed.
