Kallar Kahar (Urdu: كلّر كہار) is a town and subdivision (Tehsil) of Chakwal District in Punjab, Pakistan. It is the capital of Kallar Kahar Tehsil.
Emperor Babar described Kallar Kahar in his memoirs as a “child of Kashmir” due to its natural beauty and charming weather. It was a natural sanctuary of peacocks, but their population has decreased due to the increasing population around the mountain and illegal catching of beautiful birds. He also referred to Takht-e-Babri, as a "charming place with good air".
