Bhaun (Urdu: بھون) is a town in Chakwal District in the Punjab province of Pakistan 12 kilometres away from the district capital Chakwal.[2]

Bhaun used to be the terminus of the 74-km long former Mandra–Bhaun Branch Line of Pakistan Railways. The line began at Mandra Junction railway station.[3][4][5]

In 2007 Pakistan Railways announced the resumption of the Bhaun to Chakwal service.[2]
