The Great Bath is part of the remains of 5,000 years old Indus Valley Civilization at Mohenjo-daro. It is located on western mound (citadel area).
The Great Bath measures 11.88 meters x 7.01 meters, and has a maximum depth of 2.43 meters. Two wide staircases, one from the north and one from the south, served as the entry to the structure. The Great Bath is built of fine baked bricks. It could have been a place for ritual bathing or religious ceremonies.
