A wide panoramic reconstruction of Dholavira, a major city of the Indus Valley Civilization, located on an arid island in the Rann of Kutch (c. 2600–1900 BCE). Stone-built citadel, middle town, and lower town arranged in precise geometric planning. Large stepped water reservoirs, channels, and cisterns integrated into the city layout. Baked brick and stone architecture, flat-roofed buildings, granaries, and administrative platforms. Sparse vegetation, salt flats and desert landscape stretching to the horizon. Clear sky, warm light, emphasis on advanced urban planning and water engineering. Highly realistic, immersive, historically accurate ancient city panorama. See more
