Historical tombs

 

There is a graveyard in Sindh, known as Chaukhandi Tombs, that has a certain historical value. These tombs are attributed to, as is mentioned on a board at the graveyard’s entrance, Jokhio and Baloch tribes and were built between the 15th and the 18th centuries. The word Chaukandhi in the local language means the four corners of any structure, and in this case, of graves.

It is believed that almost all the tombs here are made of a special kind of yellow stone which was carried from a place called Jung Shahi. These tombs have been attracting many people interested in the history of the region for quite a long time now.
