Bibi Bhori (Kot Diji)

SindhSettlementProtected
Famously known as Bibi Bhori, this is somewhat a circular shaped mound about 35m high from the ground level surmounted by an alam (flag) and without any boundary wall. The kind of stone hoards are common in the region to commemorate martyrs both in Muslims and the Sikhs. There is a greater possibility that it might have been erected by the Hindus of Sindh who also greatly honour and follow the Sikh traditions.
