Mardān (Pashto, Urdu: مردان; Urdu About this soundpronunciation (help·info); Pashto: About this soundpronunciation (help·info)) is a city in the Mardan District of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Province, Pakistan.[2] Located in the Valley of Peshawar, Mardan is the secondlargest city of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (after Peshawar).[3][4] It is a fastgrowing city that experienced a population boom in the latter half of the twentieth century.
Around 1800 BCE, the area around Mardan was part of the homeland of the Gandhara grave culture. Rock edicts of the ancient Indian King Ashoka in the nearby Shahbaz Garhi, written in the righttoleft Kharosthi script, date from the Mauryan period (mid200s BCE) and represent the earliest irrefutable evidence of writing in South Asia.[5] The nearby TakhtiBahi which has remains of an ancient Buddhist monastery was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1980
