Gandhara was an ancient civilization stretching across eastern Afghanistan and northern Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, regarded as a major crossroads where Greek, Indian, and Persian cultures converged.
In this special interview with Afghan researcher Asadullah Sharifi, we explore various dimensions of Gandhara civilization. The discussion opens the pages of Gandhara’s history, delving into its antiquity and enduring legacy.
Sharifi shares valuable insights on Gandhara’s history, art, philosophy, religions, Taxila University, the philosophers of Swat and Peshawar, the features of Greco-Buddhist art, and the factors that led to the civilization’s decline.
The full interview is available on Wesal TV’s YouTube channel.
