The Amb Temples (Urdu: امب مندر), locally known as Amb Sharif (Urdu: امب شریف; "Noble Amb"), are part of an abandoned Hindu temple complex on the Sakesar mountain, located at the western edge of the Salt Range in Pakistan's Punjab province.[2] Although foundations go back to the period of Kushan Empire, the temple complex was built in the 9th to 10th centuries CE during the reign of the Hindu Shahi empire.[1][3]
