The important sites of the Harappan culture are Harappa in the Punjab, Mahenjodaro in Sind, Chanhudaro situated at a distance of 130 kilometers from Mahenjodaro, Lothal in Gujrat and Kalibangan in Gujrat and Rupar near Simla.

This civilisation in the beginning was called as the Indus Valley Civilisation .as Harappa and Mahenjodaro were situated on the Valley of the Indus. But during the subsequent periods the remains of this culture were unearthed from various places in Sind.

According to my knowledge, the single most unique characteristic of these two ancient civilizations is the use of proper planning for their cities. It had straight wide roads, proper sewerage system, public baths and a grid like city plan.

It's very astonishing that such skill and knowledge was known by people in that era.
