Description
A Buddhist period archaeological site, locally known as Kalawan or the Caves because of presence of three small caves in the hill side used by the farmers for preserving their hay and grains. The age of the buildings at Kalawan by the type of their masonry combined with other evidences, is indicated to be the early Kushan period. The Stupas and monastic quarters arrayed with varying sizes and dimension look with prominence among the other celebrated Buddhist monuments around Taxila.
