One Day Trip to Bhamala Stupa

The Bhamala Stupa is an ancient Buddhist archaeological site located near Khanpur in the Haripur District of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. Dating back to the 4th century CE, it is one of the most significant remnants of the Gandhara civilization—a region once renowned for its unique fusion of Greco-Roman and Buddhist art and architecture. The site is particularly notable for housing one of the oldest cruciform-shaped stupas in the region, which provides invaluable insights into early Buddhist architectural development.
