We Are Going Toward Kunala Stupa

The Plus Minus Is

We Are Going Toward Kunala Stupa and the way is pass through Sirkup City

Until 1990 or 1996, people believed that coming here would restore eyesight

and this belief was only believed by Muslims as well as people of other

religions.

This is a tree in front of me. It is a very scary tree

At present, we are walking from the main boulevard inside Sarkup City

towards Kanala Stupa, there are various temples and stupas on the road to our right and left.

i have already made a comprehensive vlog on sirkup city, if you wish you can watch on my Channel

The long-running Main Boulevard has turned into a dirt trail

We met a gentleman in the middle, We asked him that he said Kanala Stupa?

he pointed his finger, said Up There

now the boundary has come that means this is end of sirkup city and i think

kunala stupa is near, up on to the top of mountain

quite far away from main entrance of ancient sirkup city Taxila

this is old sirkup city and quite big is this

And what is in front of us was the palace of the disciples of Jesus (peace be upon him).

Mr. Gilani is asking how people would have reached here in this era?

So I said to them that surely there will not be a high-speed vehicle in the era,

mules, horses or donkeys must be used.

They had gone down the wrong path before

We entered someone's field by mistake and from there we walked through all the fields

that side the way was not good it was dangerous there

now we saw the wall and we will try to go up side

this place is very height location

and

we don't remember the exact way

yes we saw the way to reach up from here

we were on a wrong track

mr gilani actually we were wrong, hahaha

we are almost here,

we have reached, There are many stairs here

and that is ancient sirkup city taxila

and this is kunala stupa let us discover the hidden stupa

My suggestion here is to keep visiting such places as this information increases

In normal circumstances we move around, so these are the closest places, so we should keep coming here

this hidden stupa is 39 km away from rawalpindi, located in Taxila Valley Called Kunala Stupa

And finally we have reached this place after much struggle

this is top height located in taxila

Apart from this, there are many mountains here which may not be discovered yet

there is sirkup city down there and you can reach from there to here quite easy

Well, this is a place where Buddhist people used to come until 1996 and local people also used to

come here and they believed that coming here would bring back the sight of the eyes.

Such was their belief and tradition

any ways let us check the are let us dicover

well, that wall what you are looking

is the boundry of this Ancient Kunala Stupa Site

sorry i was wrong this is monastery

we have spend a lot of time here to search the are

As you come from the bottom to the top there is a stupa right in front and

then on the side of this broken stupa where I am standing is the area of the monster.

and look at the wall this is lime stone and opposite site there is a rock a lime stone rock, they made this wall using that rocks

and inside is monastery

this is quite big are look like a complex

and the hall is sounded by rooms and in the middle there is a pond

It seems that the place has suffered a lot of decay in the past. Here also the city had a small stupa which was broken.

try to learn something new let see

in the language of prikrit, kunal is the name of a beautiful bird which has beautiful eyes

Ashoka who is the founder of modern Buddhism he is his father, kept his name kunal

but unfortunately kunal was blind by birth

That's why this stupa was also named as Kanala Stupa

A considerable number of people of lesser faith, including Muslims, were included

They started coming to stupa in the hope that their eyesight might be restored.

Apart from Buddhists, there were also a large number of Muslims among them.

This site is very healthy but the Archaeological Department is not working here

I think the development here is only limited to the stairs, because apart from the stairs,

there is nothing special that the department has built.

Now this one in front is a stupa and there are bushes all around, I don't understand where it starts and where it ends.

but anyways this is natural and actual not duplicate and not a replica

it is look a like ban faqeran stupa which is located in shah allah ditta village islamabad

again this is stupa and that is monastery

the stupa has a lot of steps unfortunately a lot of plants here there for that is not visible

and this is garbage

i request the people that when they come bring back the garbage it is not a hard job they can put all things in one plastic bag

this is tourist spot a very beautiful site and healthy rich ancient area opposite side is ancient sirkap city

final words

this is kunala stupa

located in taxila pakistan a rich history site the people are interest they must come to see the area

that is stupa and this is monasteries

As for this place

It was Ashoka who was the founder of modern Buddhism

He sent his son here

And this stupa was named after him

Our purpose in coming here was to discover this new place

very good place very good weather and this is surrounded by lime stone rock

and this is middle of all these thing

our aim is that to know the history of this ancient site

Because people come to Sarkup but they don't come up here, it is also a very

nice place and a very beautiful place. The weather is beautiful today. we will upload more details about this area

keep watching than you
