History

Ashokan Rock edict Junagarh dates back to about 300 BC and is carved into a large granite stone at the western end of India. The Edict is written in Brahmi script and preaches the idea of ​​love, peace, and forgiveness and applies to all believers, not just Buddhism. Carved into stone with an iron pen, this book contains historically important knowledge. Today, Rock Edict is protected by a modern white building that preserves ancient wisdom in its original form. Ashoka's Rock Edict is a secluded tourist destination, primarily of interest to history lovers. The Edict is a jewel from the past and symbolizes the ancient wisdom and virtues that form the foundation of India, so not only almost all Indians but all enthusiasts who really want to absorb the heritage of Indian knowledge.
