Kurukshetra Panorama and Science Centre is a unique Centre that combines science with religion. The main attraction of the Centre is a life-like panorama of the epic battle of Kurukshetra that showcases Mahabharata war with scientific explanations justifying every episode in the war. The magnificent two-storied building of the Centre has cylindrical walls. The Centre has an interesting exhibition called 'India: A Heritage in Science, Technology and Culture', consisting of working and interactive exhibits on ancient Indian concept of properties of matter, structure of atom, geometry, arithmetical rules, astronomy, medicine and surgery.
The tall and cylindrical building has elegant architecture and ambiance. On the centre of the cylindrical hall, there are paintings 34-feet in height depicting various episodes of Mahabharata from confrontation between the Pandavas and the Kauravas to the diorama of the battleground that epitomizes the carnage realistically. The chanting of Gita and distant war cries blended with lighting illusions end a perfect ambience.
A Science Park has also been set up outside the Centre's building. It is a refreshing concept of science learning for children through fun and enjoyment. Not only children but also adults get attracted to these aesthetically placed exhibits in the greenery of the park.
