A Historical City

Tweet

Do you know about above city. Ok let me tell you a bit story of this city. If you are a History interested person you must heard the name of Alexander the Great who came to conqure India. But you know what happened when he reached Afzalpur (located in Mirpur District of Azad Kashmir(Pakistan). Raja Poris the ruler of this area faught with the great army of the great king. Mean while the Raja Poris was killed and the Alexander the great fell sick (suffering from fever) and he decided to go back home land. One of his horse named Jhelum also died here and he gave the name of his horse to this city (located on GT Road from Islamabad to Lahore on bank of the river Jhelum)because the horse was burried here. You can found the bones of elephants,camels,horses and even of persons on digging 2 to 3 feets land. This place is only 6 km far from my house. Thanks God I was not at that time.
