Mohra Muradu, Buddhist stupa and monastery in Punjab, Pakistan
The Mohra Muradu complex contains 27 monastic cells organized around a central courtyard with a square pool for ceremonial baths and ritual washings.
Archaeological excavations of this Buddhist site were conducted by Sir John Marshall between 1914 and 1915, revealing structures from the 2nd century CE.
The monastery walls display numerous Buddha statues and decorative elements combining local architectural styles with Hellenistic influences from the Gandhara period.
The monastery incorporated water management systems with wooden roof extensions channeling rainwater into a central pool measuring half a meter in depth.
The monumental votive stupa features carvings of elephants and the Greek god Atlas supporting a base decorated with Corinthian columns and Buddha reliefs.
