Islamabad - Taxila Museum - Sirkap Taxila - Khanpur Lake - Lahore. Distance: 440 km

Taxila Museum - Located in Taxila, Punjab, Pakistan, the Taxila Museum houses a significant and comprehensive collection of Gandharan art from the 1st to the 7th centuries CE. Most items in the collection were excavated from the ancient ruins of Taxila, with many historical sites nearby.

Sirkap - After the Bhir Mound site was abandoned, Sirkap became the main city of Taxila in the 2nd century B.C. The city was heavily influenced by Greek city planning principles introduced after Alexander the Great’s conquest in the 3rd century B.C. Now in ruins, the city once featured a 6-meter thick, 5-kilometer long defensive wall made of coarse rubble. Like ancient Greek cities, it had a fortified “acropolis” or high ground within the defense perimeter. The streets were more regular than those at Bhir, and the houses were primarily made of coursed stone. Temples, houses, shrines, and stupas lined the main north-south street.

Sirkap thrived under various regimes, starting with the Greeks, followed by the Scythians, Parthians, and finally the Kushanas. The city lost its significance after King Kanishka of the Kushan dynasty established another city at nearby Sirsukh.

Khanpur Dam - The Khanpur Dam is situated on the Haro River in Khanpur, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, approximately 50 km from Islamabad, the capital of Pakistan. It creates Khanpur Lake, a reservoir that provides drinking water to Islamabad and Rawalpindi and irrigation water to many agricultural and industrial areas surrounding the cities.
