Asalam o alaikum

good morning

good after

good evening

welcome back to the channel

how are you people?

right now we are in

SIRKAP city

we are here to Explore

and try to find out that on that time how people used to live and build the houses

right now i m standing on main boulevard of these ruins

There are many temples and houses along this main boulevard

so let us see, hot weather today

People of that time used to plan and release

This place is planned

There is also the Main Boulevard

There is also a temple along the main street, Temple name is jain mat mandir

In the old days, people also gave more importance to religion

Placing the temple at the very entry point is a sign of that

It seems that in the old days, people used to plan and live here

Mankind has progressed rapidly since the Stone Age

Man has always looked ahead. He used to live in a cave and then he started building a house

There are side streets along the main street

These streets seem to be placed between each house

Along with this society, houses were also built under regular planning

These houses seem to have been regularly earthquake proof

They even had kitchens and bedrooms

Sewerage and rainwater drainage arrangements are also visible

It is not at all the case that at that time people were just building a wall and letting go

Surprisingly, the back rooms were kept a little higher

And the next part was just down the street

That is, the back part is high and the front part is low so that there is no standing water inside the house

On my right hand is a house that is quite big and the owner of that house seems lucky

Nowadays such a big house is very expensive

There are so many things in this house

There is something written about this house on this board

It has disappeared due to strong sunlight

it looks residential unit

look, This is Shop and it is on main road and corner too

This shop is very expensive

Invaluable shop

As well as houses and temples, people knew how to do business

That is, commercial areas were also built

Unlike today, wherever the heart wants to create a commercial area, Everything is built here in a way

Archaeological remains of the five-square-kilometer, nearly 2,000-year-old city were discovered in 1912

Sir John Marshall discovered

After the discovery of this city, it was found out that this city was settled many times and was destroyed many times

History also shows that the city was destroyed three times by an earthquake

The ruins of the present city belong to the Persian city which was a multi-religious city

That is, people of many religions lived together here and did their own way of worship

The people of that time were educated, civilized and enterprising, as well as religiously tolerant

There is a saying that every rise has a fall

There is a palace in front of me

This city belonged to a king

St. Thomas was a disciple of Jesus who came here to preach Christianity.

He stayed in this palace

Once upon a time it was the king's palace but today it is in ruins, meaning every rise is a fall

It was a magnificent palace and today it has been reduced to rubble

The simple fact is that everything has to stay there. We didn't take anything with us

While walking in this city, I suddenly saw a stupa

And I remembered a stupa in Mankiala village which is very close to Rawalpindi. It is quite small in writing but that stupa is very big.

Despite being quite small in size, it is exactly the same stupa

A video of Mankiala Stupa has been uploaded on my YouTube channel

It looks like a very special stupa and definitely attracts something Made to

That's a great thing

In addition to housing, the residents also held religious beliefs

There are many temples and sites

This is the temple of the sun god

The ruins you see here is a palace built by St. Thomas, a disciple of Jesus.

What a great plan. There are temples at the beginning and the king's palace at the end

This shows that religion was very important at that time

The societies that are built today have commercials first and housing later

People lived in a very nice way

The ruins you see here used to be a very modern civilization

But the dust of time has completely destroyed them

The city at that time was above Paris and New York

The structure of the place shows that it was built under a lot of planning but now that thing is gone

Everything is here

palace

shops commercial area

temples

houses

rain water system

Much better than today's man who at least lived under planning

The road we are currently on is Main Boulevard

It's a big technical thing. If you find out today from an engineer how to get rainwater out of the house, he'll start thinking.

What they are seeing now is a rainwater drainage system

These are small drains

interesting

The design of this city is very interesting

First the water well then the street temple shops and residences behind the king's palace and shops

There are also residences of the king's staff near the palace

The workers of that time built the city in a very high style. The main highway was kept wide enough and all the streets were connected along the main road.

In addition, all streets and main roads were kept on a slight slope

So that rain and sewage water can be drained automatically without stopping

All places of worship, houses and commercial shops were constructed in such a way that every building with its back part placed at

a slight height and the front part placed at the level of the main street so that rain and sewage water

could be pumped automatically. Keep running

Workers were the most skilled craftsmen of their time

Asalam o alaikum

This is Syed zulfiqar gilani From Gilani Logs (Youtube channel)

it is a great honor for me that i am on amin rajput channel

I will also say about Taxila in a few sentences

The city was settled a thousand years before Christ

But history shows that it was settled 600 BC

When the snake worshipers were settled here

The old name of taxila is TAK SHA SILLA

Taxa in Sanskrit
The snake is called

The worshiper is called shila

That is, snake worshipers lived here

And the Hindus believe that these people used to take the form of human beings from snakes after some time.

Only those people lived here and everyone else was not allowed to come here

There was a king named Ram Jaya

Ram Jaya fought here

Well, the name of the city we are in now is sirkap

This is part of the Taxila Valley

The Greeks named the city Taxila, and it is still called by that name

The first city is Bhir Mound then it is Sirkap

bhir mound remained inhabited for only five hundred years in which it was destroyed four times and settled four times

The city of Sirkap was later settled and was a Greek city

And it was a kind of secular city

Secular in the sense that people of four religions lived together here

Hindus first

then Jain Mat they have temple here

then buddhist are also because they have stupa here

The Greeks worshiped the sun

There is also a temple of the sun god

That is why this city was called secular city

The city then remained inhabited until the second century AD, that is, about four hundred and five hundred years

This city was also inhabited many times and destroyed many times

After that a third city was built which was named Sirsukh

Sirsukh remained inhabited till 500 AD

Some people came here from the Caspian Sea

Some people call them Arya and some people white hun but there is a difference between them

They wreaked havoc here

This was the time of the destruction of Taxila, so it is said that every rise has a fall and after every fall there is perfection.

this was business hub businessmen used to come here from central asia and china

This is Taxila Valley and it has also hosted Alexander the Great

Alexander the Great stayed here for five days and many buildings were built in his honor

There are two different traditions regarding the name of Sirkap

first raja risalu fight against rakshis and raja killed them so the name is sirkap

There used to be a game like chess

Beheading means to cut off the head of the loser

However, there are different traditions regarding the name of this city

At that time you will see rocks here, but the place where I am sitting was the main bazaar.

And at the very end was the king's palace

It was a very populous city and at one time it could be compared to today's New York and Paris or Rome

But today there is only stone here

If there was a language of stones, they would surely tell you the past

Which I am describing at the moment

I hope you enjoy this journey of history with Amin rajput

Thank You

The pit I am standing in at the moment is a sign that this city has been inhabited many times and destroyed many times.

Here are a few plates installed here which clearly means that this city was on this site before

and then it came to this site and today the present city is in its original condition.

And this third sign is above

This is a very deep pit

And there are two poplar trees here, which is my favorite

These trees seem to be quite old

However, the pit in which we are now is a sign that the city was at this level before

But the ruins in this pit are almost non-existent

and this is a big achievement
