Kashmir Smast, Limestone cave system in Babuzai Sakrah mountains, Pakistan.
The Kashmir Smast contains three main chambers with octagonal shrines, water tanks, and strategic openings that allow natural light to enter the chambers.
Archaeological evidence indicates that from the 4th to 9th century AD, the cave complex formed part of a sovereign kingdom governed by White Hun administrators.
The cave walls display wooden panels featuring both Hindu and Buddhist artistic elements, reflecting the religious diversity of ancient Gandhara civilization.
Visitors need guidance from local experts to navigate the complex cave system within the Katlang Valley Mardan region of Northern Pakistan.
The excavation site revealed an enclosed area with advanced water systems, fortifications, and evidence of organized urban development in ancient Gandhara.
