Millions of pilgrims and tourist throng to Kurukshetra during the Solar Eclipse every year to have the privilege of having a dip in the sacred tanks of Brahma Sarovar and Sannihit Sarovar. A holy dip in these tanks during the eclipse gives the merit of performing 1000 Ashwamedha Yajnas. It is said that in the Sannihit Sarovar during this time all the sacred places & pilgrimages assemble there by and thus one directly gets the merits of all the sacred places at one particular place.
