Indraprastha (Sanskrit: इन्द्रप्रस्थ, lit. "Plain of Indra " [1] or "City of Indra"), contemporarily in Delhi, is a city cited in ancient Indian literature as a constituent of the Kuru kingdom. It was designated the capital of the Pandavas, a brotherly quintet in the Hindu epic Mahabharata.
Indraprastha, the capital of the Pandavas as mentioned in the Mahabharata, holds a significant place in the historical and cultural narrative of India. Believed to be the precursor to modern-day Delhi, Indraprastha was a symbol of architectural brilliance, governance, and prosperity.
Indraprastha is a wider cultural-geographical legacy than Old Delhi, and calls for a broader Mahabharata heritage circuit over symbolic renaming.
What is the history of the ancient city of Indraprastha, and what does the historical record show about the connection of the area around today’s Delhi with the epic war that many historians and archaeologists believe to have taken place around 1000 BCE?
