Seven Colours of Pakistan

Tour of the city’s attractions, including the National Museum of Pakistan, St. Patrick’s Cathedral, the palaces of Mohatti, Quaid-e-Azam, and Freeroll Hall, the mosques of Tooba and Grand Jamie, and the Empress and Zainab markets. Karachi at night.

Early in the morning, I drove a rented car to Thatta (about 100 km away), a historic town with a distinctive civilization that has been inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. There, I learned about the magnificent Mughal Empire’s architecture, in particular the Shah Jahan mosque, and I examined McLeigh, the largest cemetery in the entire world. We stop close to the Chakundi tombs (a sizable area with distinctively carved vaults from the 15th to the 18th centuries) on the road to Thatha. The archaeological digs at Banbhor, an Alexander the Great-founded port town where the Islamic conquest of these regions began at the beginning of the eighth century, are one more stop. After Thatti, we had an evening drive to Hyderabad, one of the biggest cities in the nation.

After leaving Hyderabad, we travel to Sehwan, the location of one of Alexander the Great’s fortifications, as well as the shrine of Shaikh Usman Marvandvi, also known as Lal Shabaz Qalandar, a famous Persian Sufi mystic who lived in the 12th century. Each year, thousands of people attend his raucous annual celebration. Later, we went to Manchar Lake, where descendants of the first inhabitants of the Indus Valley still fish using traditional methods.

We travel to Mohenjo-daro, the most spectacular and well-preserved ancient site on the Indian subcontinent, after leaving the lovely garden city of Larkana. It is an entire city from the Indus Valley Civilization, which was contemporaneous with Ancient Egypt and Sumeria, and it exhibits sophisticated town-planning methods. Later, we travel to Sukkur through Bukkur, an Indus island with a fort atop it and monuments to river gods all around. Many interesting things may be found in Sukkur proper, including Sateen Jo Astaan (the seven sisters’ tombs) and Masoom Shah Jo Minaro, both of which offer stunning views of the surrounding area and an intriguing past.

We departed Sukkur over the magnificent irrigation projects that the British completed and the Lansdowne Bridge. As we travel north and into the Punjab, we stop at the Bhong Mosque and Uch Sharif, which is home to some of the most moving remnants of Islamic antiquity, including the Tomb of Bibi Jewindi. We keep going until we reach the lovely city of Bahawalpur.

We travel to Derawar Fort, a massive citadel that dominates the Cholistan Desert nearby, where we will encounter some desert nomads and gain some insight into their way of life. We travel to Multan by car in the evening.

Early departure from Lahore with a rental automobile. A stop at Harappa, the most significant city in the Indus Valley’s Harappa civilization, is made en route. a look at the dig sites and a modest neighborhood museum. continuing on to Lahore further. After arriving, check into a hotel and relax. Lahore at night.

The UNESCO sites Shalimar and Wagah Gardens (the showpiece descent ceremony on a single Indo-Pakistani border) are about to take up the second half of the day. Go back to Lahore and recuperate.

We will travel west from the ”capital” of culture, Lahore, to Islamabad, Pakistan’s capital, stopping along the way to see the Katasraj Temple and tour the Khewra Salt Mines. Dinner and overnight stay at an Islamabad hotel.
