BURJ MALKA HANS


06-04-2018

It is square burnt brick burj (bastion) supported with mud bricks. A staircase is located on north side. It is located outside the village of Malka Hans in fields. The burj seems to be part of fort boundary wall, with passage of time bricks from walls taken for construction of houses in nearby villages. 

No, history has been found about this structure. The old villagers told it is standing in fields for centuries. Also it is told some paranormal activities have been observed near this edifice. That’s the only reason which saved it  from destruction.


Special thanks to Pakistan Archaeological department who have documented this place. However, I wish they have done some effort to preserve this place as well.
