The tallest minaret that Kanishka built on the relics of the Buddha at Shah-Ji-Ki in present-day Peshawar is undoubtedly the greatest architectural monument of the Kushan period. Kanishka built a Buddhist stupa near Takshila. There are more sculptural specimens of the Kushan period than of architecture. Kushan sculpture flourished throughout Afghanistan and Punjab. The indigenous art style is predominant in the sculptures of Mathura. The Yaksha-Yakshini idols of the Kushan period found in Mathura can be mentioned in this context.
