Answer:

Town Planning:

These cities show immaculate town planning.

The city of Harappa was divided into two parts, i.e. western and eastern parts.

The western part of the city was smaller but higher. The higher part was called the citadel. The citadel contained some special structures.

The eastern part of the city was larger but lower. The lower part was called the lower city.

A huge tank has been found within the citadel. This has been named as the Great Bath by archaeologists. This was made from baked bricks. Its walls and floors were sealed by naturally occurring tar. There were steps on all sides so that people could easily go down the tank. Rooms were built around it. The historians guess that this was used by the ruling classes; for ritual bath.

Rich people lived in the upper part of the city.

Workers lived in the lower part of the city.
