User:Sourish Paul Shyamnagar India, don't make unilateral changes to sections like "Districts" and thereby create red links. Start a thread on Talk:Haryana with a proposal, keeping in mind that Wikivoyage:The traveller comes first means that we do not automatically use official regional structures in our guides. Also -"Stay safe" text that does not advise readers on potential dangers.

  • 4 Hisar — an important centre of education and steel production

  • 9 Panipat — an ancient and historic city that is sometimes called The City of Weaver, also site of many battles

Other destinations

[edit]
  • 1 Kalesar National Park, Haryana — home to the red jungle fowl and other bird species, this has become a bird-watcher's destination.
  • 2 Morni — a town in the Morni Hills
  • 3 Sultanpur National Park — a paradise for bird watchers

Understand

[edit]

Haryana is a Hindu-dominated state that split off from largely Sikh Punjab in 1966. Haryana surrounds Delhi on three sides and is dominated by that city's suburban and commercial sprawl. The remainder of the state is largely agrarian, with few attractions to slow down the passing tourist.

Get in

[edit]

By plane

[edit]

Indira Gandhi International Airport in Delhi is the closest airport. There are no airports with passenger service in Haryana. Hisar airport is new airport in haryana

By train

[edit]

The railway network in Haryana is extensive, with the major stations being Ambala Cantonment, Panipat, Gurugram and Faridabad. Checking the train schedule and booking the tickets can be done on the Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC) website or on third-party websites and apps such as MakeMyTrip, RailYatri, Confirmtkt and ixigo.

By car

[edit]

Haryana's roads are well connected to the neighboring states of Rajasthan, Punjab and Uttar Pradesh. National Highways 1, 2, 8, and 10 pass through different parts of the state, making it easily accessible.

This region travel guide to Haryana is an outline and may need more content. It has a template, but there is not enough information present. If there are Cities and Other destinations listed, they may not all be at usable status or there may not be a valid regional structure and a "Get in" section describing all of the typical ways to get here.
