Religious buildings Of Sirkap

Buddhist stupas with strong Hellenistic decorative elements can be found throughout the Sirkap site (Stupa of the two eagles as well as a Hindu temple, indicating a close interaction of religious cultures. A Greek religious temple of the Ionic order is also visible at the nearby site of Jandial (650 meters from Sirkap), but there is a possibility that it may have been dedicated to a Zoroastrian cult. The site of Sirkap bears witness to the city-building activity of the Indo-Greeks during their occupation of the Indian territory for close to two centuries, as well as their integration of other faiths, especially Buddhism. بدھ ستوپے شھر میں جگہ جگہ پر موجود ہیں اسی طرح ایک ہندو مندر بھی پایا گیا ہے جس سے یہاں دونوں مذاہب کے درمیان روابط کا علم ہوتا ہے۔ سرکپ کے نزدیک ہی جنڈیال کے مقام پر ایک یونانی یا زرتشتی مندر بھی موجود ہے
