Ushkur

Ushkur is an ancient Buddhist site near Baramulla in Kashmir.
Baramulla is located on the Jhelum river around 55 km from the capital city Srinagar. It was an important trading centre during British rule, as it formed the western entrance to the Kashmir Valley.
== History ==
Ushkur was called Hushkapur in ancient times. Hushkapur was said to have been founded by King Huvishka of the Kushan dynasty. The Buddhist Kushans ruled parts of Afghanistan and northern India, including Kashmir, during the first three centuries CE. The Chinese traveler Xuanzang passed this area in the 7th century; he described Ushkur as a flourishing centre of Buddhism.
The site has several stupas. A stupa was found and excavated in the 1870s. Henry Hardy Cole's ''Archaeological Survey of India'' report〔'Illustrations of Ancient Buildings in Kashmir'〕 of 1869 claimed, "The locality which includes the remains of a Monastery is called the 'Jayendra Vihar', and the erection is assigned by local tradition to one 'Praverasena' in A.D. 500." Excavations have unearthed the remains of several finely-modelled terracotta heads in the Gandharan style, which are displayed in the British Museum and others.
