One or two days suits most visitors. A first day covers the Bhai fort, Bhai ki Baoli, Gyarah Rudri temple and the tomb of Sheikh Tayyab. A second day leaves room for the brick temples of Kalayat, the Phalgu tirtha at Pharal or the tomb linked to Razia Sultan near Siwan.

Possibly, though nobody is certain. Razia Sultan and her husband Malik Altunia retreated to Kaithal after their defeat in 1240 and were killed nearby. A tomb near Kaithal is said to be her original grave, while a tomb in Old Delhi also carries her name, and historians still debate the question.

Local tradition says so. Kaithal's old name, Kapisthala, means the abode of Kapi, another name for Hanuman, and legend places his birth here. A mound called Anjani Tila, named after his mother Anjani, keeps the story alive, though it rests on legend and the Puranas rather than records.
