Discover Rohtak: Lake, Leisure and History

Rohtak can be explored through a variety of interests: a large lake with boating, an amusement park and historic places offer several possible focuses for your trip. The first step in planning is to decide which of these appeals to you most. Tilyar Lake offers water activities and various leisure options; Splash Water Park adds a different kind of leisure. The mosque and Khokhrakot offer historical perspectives. You can shape your stay around what you want to see.

Lake and leisure at Tilyar Lake

Tilyar Lake is in Rohtak district in the state of Haryana, near the city of Rohtak. It covers 132 acres. You can go boating on the large lake; Tilyar Lake also has a mini-zoo and a children's railway. This brings water activities and other leisure options together at one destination. If you are travelling with others, this variety can help with planning together, as not everyone has to settle on the same activity.

A different kind of leisure: Splash Water Park

Splash Water Park adds another entertainment option. It is located on Delhi-Hisar Road near Sukhpura Chowk in Rohtak and covers 5 acres. While Tilyar Lake combines boating with other leisure options, Splash Water Park focuses on an amusement park. This gives you a clear distinction when choosing: a lake and boating on one hand, an amusement park on the other. If you are considering both, treat them as different activities on your trip.

Historical traces in and near Rohtak

The Pirzada Mosque is small and lies south of the Jama Masjid. According to its inscription, it was built by Sheikh Yasaf from Hisar during Babur's reign. Khokhrakot was the capital of the Yaudheyas and is now a large mound near Rohtak. The two places offer different historical perspectives: the mosque is notable for the period in which it is said to have been built, while Khokhrakot is notable for its former role as the Yaudheyas' capital and its present-day mound. If you want to include the area's history in your trip, these places offer different points of interest.

Plan your journey and hotel choice

Rohtak Junction railway station is connected to a good railway network. Rohtak lies on National Highway No. 10 and has bus connections to cities and towns in neighbouring states. You can include both rail and road travel in your plans. The right connection for you depends on your starting point. Check current departure times before your trip if you plan to use a specific train or bus connection.

Choosing a hotel thus becomes part of planning your trip, based on the places and themes you actually want to experience.
