The Indus seals, also called Harappan seals depicting finely executed carvings, approximately dating as far back as 5000 years, are highly sophisticated heritage artifacts which mirror the religious, social and intellectual excellence of Indus valley civilization.

Introduction to Mohenjo-Daro

Mohenjo-Daro (meaning “Mound of the Dead”) is one of the most remarkable and iconic archaeological sites in Pakistan, showcasing the grandeur of the ancient Indus Valley Civilization. Discovered in 1922 by R. D. Banerji, an officer of the Archaeological Survey of India, Mohenjo-Daro is located in the Sindh province of Pakistan, near the Indus River.

Dating back to approximately 2500 BCE, this UNESCO World Heritage Site is renowned as one of the earliest urban settlements in human history. It was a thriving metropolis during its peak and is celebrated for its advanced city planning, sophisticated drainage systems, and impressive architecture, which demonstrate the ingenuity of its inhabitants.

Mohenjo-Daro is particularly famous for its well-organized grid-like streets, the Great Bath (believed to be a public bathing area), and meticulously designed brick houses equipped with modern water and sewage systems—an extraordinary achievement for its time. The site also provides insights into the socio-economic, cultural, and technological advancements of the Indus Valley people.

Artifacts such as seals, pottery, jewelry, and the famous Priest-King statue reflect a highly developed civilization with a complex system of governance, trade, and religious practices. These discoveries offer a glimpse into a society that valued innovation, art, and order.

Mohenjo-Daro remains a symbol of Pakistan’s rich historical and cultural heritage, attracting historians, archaeologists, and tourists from around the world. Its preservation and study continue to shed light on the mysteries of the ancient world and remind us of the ingenuity of human civilization thousands of years ago.

SHAHJAHAN MASJID 36″ X 24″

  • Thatta, Pakistan
  • 1647 A. D. 

The Shah Jahan Mosque, also known as the Jamia Masjid of Thatta is a 17th-century building that serves as the central mosque for the city of Thatta, in the Pakistani province of Sindh. Persian inscriptions at the mosque indicated that it was built between 1644 and 1647

The mosque is considered to have the most elaborate display of tile work in South Asia and is also notable for its geometric brickwork – a decorative element that is unusual for Mughal-period mosques. It was built during the reign of Mughal emperor Shah Jahan, who bestowed it to the city as a token of gratitude, and is heavily influenced by Central Asian architecture – a reflection of Shah Jahan’s campaigns near Samarkand shortly before the mosque was designed.  Restoration works were carried out by Emperor Aurangzeb in 1692, as well as by Murad Ali Khan Talpur in 1812.

Taxila, Pakistan

2-4 A.D.

The stupa (“stupa” is Sanskrit for heap) is an important form of Buddhist architecture, though it predates Buddhism. It is generally considered to be a sepulchral monument—a place of burial or a receptacle for religious objects. At its simplest, a stupa is a dirt burial mound faced with stone.

The Stupa is also known by synonymous names such as Chaithya, Dagaba, Thupa, Seya and Vehera. Stupas designed and constructed in Sri Lanka are the largest brick structures known to the pre-modern world.

Buddhist stupas were originally built to house the earthly remains of the historical Buddha and his associates and are almost invariably found at sites sacred to Buddhism. The concept of a relic was afterward extended to include sacred texts.

  • Lahore, Pakistan

  • Minar-e-Pakistan is a national monument located in Lahore, Pakistan. The tower was built between 1960 and 1968 on the site where the All-India Muslim League passed the Lahore Resolution on 23 March 1940 – the first official call for a separate and independent homeland for the Muslims of British India, as espoused by the two-nation theory. The resolution eventually helped lead to the emergence of an independent Pakistani state in 1947. The tower construction was started in 1960 and it took 8 years to complete in 1968. The estimated budget to complete the great construction is near Rs.70 Lakh (7 million). Money to complete this project is collected from Pakistani people to charge 10 to 15 Rs. extra tax at theater/cinema. It is a combination of Islamic as well as national culture. The tower base is shaped like a flower. The monument is covered with parks and flowers. Its location is used for political and religious events. It is also known as the “Liberty Tower of Pakistan”.The tower reflects a blend of Mughal/Islamic and modern architecture.The tower was designed and supervised by, Nasreddin Murat-Khan a Russian-born Pakistani architect and civil engineer. The foundation stone was laid on 23 March 1960. Construction took eight years and was completed on 21 October 1968 at an estimated cost of Rs 7,058,000. The money was collected by imposing an additional tax on cinema and horse racing tickets at the demand of Akhter Husain, governor of West Pakistan. Today, the minaret provides a panoramic view to visitors who can climb up the stairs or access the top, by means of an elevator. The parks around the monument include marble fountains and an artificial lake.The base is about 8 meters above the ground. The tower rises about 62 meters on the base, the total height of the minar is about 70 meters above the ground. The unfolding petals of the flower-like base are 9 meters high. The diameter of the tower is about 9.75 meters. The rostrum is built of patterned tiles and faces Badshahi Mosque. The base comprises four platforms. To symbolize the humble beginning of the freedom struggle, the first platform is built with uncut stones from Taxila, the second platform is made of hammer-dressed stones, whereas the third platform is chiseled stones. Polished white marble at the fourth and final platform depicts the success of the Pakistan Movement.At the base, there are floral inscriptions on ten converging white marble Commemorative plaques. The inscriptions include the text of Lahore Resolution in Urdu, Bengali, and English, and the Delhi Resolution’s text, which was passed on 9 April 1946. On different plaques, Quranic verses and 99 names of Allah are inscribed in Arabic calligraphy, whereas National Anthem of Pakistan in Urdu and Bengali, excerpts from the speeches of Muhammad Ali Jinnah, in Urdu, Bengali, and English, along with few couplets of Allama Iqbal include the other important inscriptions.
