| According to one man, Guru Dev Rabindra Nath Tagore, Punjab is the home of the first civilized man because it cradled the world's greatest civilizations. Many relics, which have been the object of great historical discoveries, have been unearthed at Ropar, Kiratpur, Dholbaha, Rohira, and Ghuram.
The relics found underground highlight the cultural and architectural changes of Punjab. It's a true cultural and historical adventure for those who want more than just an ordinary vacation. |
