Summary edit

Description

The Map of Jammu City. Company period, Punjab, circa A.D. 1880-90; cloth pasted on paper, 128 x 208 cm

The building of the city of Jammu and the Bahu Fort are linked to a legend. Raja Jambu Lochan, when on a hunting trip, witnessed a curious scene of a tiger and a goat drinking water side by side at the same location in the Tawi River, without the tiger attacking. The Raja considered this a divine direction to establish his new capital here, as the scene he witnessed at this site represented peaceful coexistence. His brother, Bahu Lochan, is credited with building the fort. <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bahu_Fort" rel="nofollow">en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bahu_Fort</a>
