Kshetra (sacred place)

In Hinduism, a "Kshetra" refers to a sacred place or holy site, often associated with significant religious events, deities, or pilgrimage. These locations are believed to have spiritual importance and are frequented by devotees seeking blessings or enlightenment. Kshetras can include temples, rivers, mountains, and cities known for their religious significance.
