Alexander the Great conquered Multan in 326 BCE during his campaign against the Malli people, engaging in one of the most significant battles of his Indian expedition.

The presence of multiple Sufi shrines and religious monuments in Multan reflects its role as a spiritual center, earning the designation City of Saints.
