The Great Bath of Mohenjodaro is called the “earliest public water tank of the ancient world”. The Great Bath measures 11.88 metres × 7.01 metres, and has a maximum depth of 2.43 metres.

Two wide staircases, one from the north and one from the south, served as the entry to the structure. A 1 metre wide and 40 centimetres mound is present at end of these stairs.
