Kehror Pacca (ancient settlements)
Kehror Pacca is a historic town situated in the Lodhran District of Punjab province and offers an insight into ancient civilizations during specific seasons such as November to February. The settlement boasts remnants of old temples, including Bara Mandir, dating back centuries that stand alongside Shahi Masjid - another significant historical mosque within its boundaries. Visitors can enjoy scenic views while exploring these sites and also appreciate the proximity of Kehror Pacca to Satluj River which adds a serene touch during their visit.
The best time to visit is during November, December, January and February. These months offer the most favorable conditions for visitors.
The most prominent sites to look for are the Bara Mandir and the Peeli Haweli, which showcase the region's diverse religious and residential architecture. These buildings feature traditional brickwork and decorative facades that reflect the settlement's medieval prosperity.
Surveys have uncovered ancient pottery shards and clay utensils that indicate the site was inhabited as far back as 900 BC. These findings suggest a continuous settlement history that predates many of the currently visible Islamic-era structures.
Many ancient remnants are located within the active urban fabric or private properties, so visitors should avoid climbing on fragile mud-brick walls. It is important not to remove any loose pottery fragments found on the ground, as they are vital for ongoing archaeological documentation.
