Good Morning / Good Evening Folks,

It all started with my last year tour to Pakistan, City Lahore. Seen all these pieces connecting me to the Mughal era which happened centuries ago.

Naveed saw these statues resembling lions. (I disagree though)

Believers of Hindu religion worship them.

Something engraved on rocks, Can't really understand.

But it has some great value I believe.

Sort:  

are there a lot of Hindus over there now in Pakistan?

@ekavieka Not that much but there are many. The thing is when you go to museums they have preserved much of it from the past.
