Jhelum Cantonment, Military base in Jhelum Tehsil, Pakistan.

The cantonment extends along the Grand Trunk Road with structured residential zones, educational facilities, and recreational spaces spread across its territory.

Established in 1849 during British administration, the cantonment functions as headquarters for the 23rd Infantry Division of the Pakistan Army.

St. John's Church from 1860 stands as a memorial structure dedicated to British soldiers who died during the Indian Rebellion of 1857.

The military area contains an eighteen-hole golf course, multiple sports fields, educational institutions, and the Combined Military Hospital for healthcare services.

Multiple salt and coal mines near the cantonment supply materials to the North-Western railway system through established transportation networks.
