Overview
Mohenjo Daro (“Mound of the Dead Men”), near Larkana in Sindh, is one of the largest and best-preserved cities of the Bronze Age Indus Valley Civilization, laid out on a grid over 4,500 years ago, complete with a Great Bath, granaries and some of the world’s earliest urban drainage. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, it rewards travelers curious about civilizations older than Egypt’s pyramids.
Because Mohenjo Daro sits roughly 900 km south of Lahore, this trip combines a short domestic flight with private ground transport, so you spend your time exploring rather than driving. We handle flights, transfers, guiding and hotels, priced on request for your dates and group size.
