Rojhan Mazari is situated in District Rajanpur of Punjab at the foot of the Sulaiman Range, near the inter-provincial borders of Balochistan, Sindh and Punjab. This city is the Capital Seat and headquarters of the Mazari Baloch tribe who have held this territory since 1632. Prior to this the Mazari Tribe were settled in the Bambore Hills of the present day Kohlu district in Balochistan.
The City of Rojhan Mazari is spread over a large area and is connected by road and railway to Kashmore in the South West and Rajanpur in the North West.
The original city of Rojhan, situated a few kilometers from the present day city, was burnt down by the Sikh forces under the command of Raja Kharak Singh in retaliation to an earlier raid on Mithankot by Mazari forces under the command of the Mazari Chief's younger brother Sardar Karam Khan in 1836.
The present City was constructed during the reign of the famous Mazari Chief, Nawab Sir Imam Buksh Khan Mazari K.C.I.E. during the early and middle part of the 19th century.
The word 'Rojhan' traces its roots back to the ancient Akkadian language of Babylon meaning the 'City of Tents'.
The City is a site to many ancient yet beautiful buildings and tombs of the Mazari Nawabs and Sardars dating back to the 17th century.
