I make friends with Adeela from Mirpur and we go to find an old Hindu temple hidden inside Ramkot Fort on the huge Mangla Dam.

Mangla Dam (मंगला बांध, منگلا بند‎) is the sixth-largest dam in the world. In the 60s it was the site of many villages, but locals were moved out to make way for the dam. During that time, the Government of Pakistan had an agreement with England where Mirpuris could go and work in British factories. Many took this option, and now there are around 700,000 Mirpuris in England. Those who stayed now live in New Mirpur City (मीरपुर सिटी, میرپورسٹی).‎

Mangla Dam was designed to increase the amount of water that could be used for irrigation from the flow of the Jhelum. Its secondary function was to generate electrical power from the irrigation releases at the artificial head of the reservoir. The dam also works as a flood control structure by retaining water during the flood-prone season of Monsoon.
