Ice chunks float down the Zanskar river as it joins the Indus at the Saspul-Nimmo confluence.
The Indus River in Ladakh, locally known as the Singhe Khababs (out of Lion's mouth), flows across the north west to the south east, passing through Ladakh and flows into Pakistan where it joined Shayok and Suru to become major historical Indus River. The river is said to have originated from the mouth of a lion in Mansarovar, in China-controlled Tibet. Thus it is also called Sengge Tsangpo or Lion River. As it flows from Tibet to Ladakh to Pakistan before meeting the Arabian Sea, it symbolically binds the people of the three nations. It is a common lifeline. One only wishes these ties could secure peace between warring neighbours. One of the earliest human civilisations settled on the banks of the Indus. Even now, as you come down Tanglang La, you spot the first permanent settlements and green zone after Jispa at Rumtse, located along one of its tributaries.
The Indus river is the backbone of Ladakh—all the major places historically and currently, Shey, Leh, Basgo, and Tingmosgang, are situated close to the river. Water levels remain high during the month June to late August, which is the best season for fascinating rafting expeditions. The white water Indus has rapids generally of I and II grades and at some places, has grade III to even V rapids.
Ladakh is a region of India in the state of Jammu and Kashmir and lies between the Kunlun mountain range in the north and the main Great Himalayas to the south, inhabited by people of Indo-Aryan and Tibetan descent. It is one of the most sparsely populated regions in Jammu and Kashmir. It is also known as the "Land of High Passes". Ladakh is the highest plateau of state of Kashmir with much of it being over 3,000 m (9,800 ft). It spans the Himalayan and Karakoram mountain ranges and the upper Indus River valley. Ladakh district was a district of the Jammu and Kashmir state of India until 1 July 1979 when it was divided into Leh district and Kargil district. Each of these districts is governed by a Ladakh Autonomous Hill Development Council, which is based on the pattern of the Darjeeling Gorkha Autonomous Hill Council. These councils were created as a compromise solution to the demands of Ladakhi people to make Leh a union territory.
The economy of Ladakh rests on three pillars: the Indian Army, tourism, and civilian government in the form of jobs and extensive subsidies. Agriculture, the mainstay only one generation ago, is no longer a major portion of the economy, although most families still own and work their land.
For centuries, Ladakh enjoyed a stable and self-reliant agricultural economy based on growing barley, wheat and peas and keeping livestock, especially yaks, cows, dzos (a yak-cow cross breed), sheep and goats. At altitudes of 3,000 to 4,300 m (10,000 to 14,000 ft), the growing season is only a few months long every year, similar to the northern countries of the world. Animals are scarce and water is in short supply. The Ladakhis developed a small-scale farming system adapted to this unique environment. The land is irrigated by a system of channels which funnel water from the ice and snow of the mountains. The principal crops are barley and wheat. Rice was previously a luxury in the Ladakhi diet, but, subsidised by the government, has now become a cheap staple.
There are about 1,800 km (1,100 mi) of roads in Ladakh of which 800 km (500 mi) are surfaced. The majority of roads in Ladakh are looked after by the Border Roads Organisation. Another common route in regular use was the Kalimpong route between Leh and Lhasa via Gartok, the administrative centre of western Tibet. In present times, the only two land routes to Ladakh in use are from Srinagar and Manali. There is one airport in Leh, from which there are daily flights to Delhi on Jet Airways, Air Deccan, and Air India and weekly flights to Srinagar and Jammu. There are two airstrips at Daulat Beg Oldie and Fukche for military transport.

Zero Line with Dr. Kent Moors
The Indus River - The Fight Between Pakistan & India
http://zerolinekentmoors.com/
The Indus River Valley: Pakistan's "First-Use Policy" means they can preemptively start a nuclear war with India at any time -- and Indian Counter-Terrorism Expert Ajai Sahni feels it is no longer a question of whether, but of when.
The Indus River Valley At War
At the crux of the matter is the Indus River, which begins in India before crossing the Zero Line and entering Pakistan. Pakistan depends on the Indus River for agriculture, employment, and ultimately half of its GDP. With the Indus River supplying so much for each country, the indus river valley has become one of the most dangerous places on the face of the earth.
The Indus River Valley has Become One of The Most Dangerous Places on The Face of The Earth
In 1960, India and Pakistan inked a tense agreement regarding use of the Indus River & the Indus River Valley, but dangerous population growth on both sides has led to increased strain on the river for power generation and drastic measures on the part of India to secure sufficient hydropower to prevent sudden power outages.
But one additional factor has created a "line in the sand" moment between the two countries -- and could transform a water war into a full-blown nuclear war...

Good stock footage of Indus river which can be seen aerially as one flies over the Leh valley.
The Indus River is a major river in Asia which flows through Pakistan and through some parts of India, Jammu and Kashmir and China. It also has courses through western Tibet and Kashmir. Originating in the Tibetan Plateau in the vicinity of Lake Mansarovar, the river runs a course through the Ladakh region of Jammu and Kashmir, towards Gilgit and Baltistan and then flows in a southerly direction along the entire length of Punjab Pakistan to merge into the Arabian Sea near the port city of Karachi in Sindh. The total length of the river is 3,180 km (1,980 mi). It is Pakistan's longest river.
The river has a total drainage area exceeding 1,165,000 km2 (450,000 sq mi). Its estimated annual flow stands at around 207 km3 (50 cu mi), making it the twenty-first largest river in the world in terms of annual flow. The Zanskar is its left bank tributary in Ladakh. In the plains, its left bank tributary is the Chenab which itself has four major tributaries, namely, the Jhelum, the Ravi, the Beas and the Sutlej. Its principal right bank tributaries are the Shyok, the Gilgit, the Kabul, the Gomal and the Kurram. Beginning in a mountain spring and fed with glaciers and rivers in the Himalayas, the river supports ecosystems of temperate forests, plains and arid countryside.
The Indus forms the delta of present-day Pakistan mentioned in the Vedic Rigveda as Sapta Sindhu and the Iranian Zend Avesta as Hapta Hindu (both terms meaning "seven rivers"). The river has been a source of wonder since the Classical Period, with King Darius of Persia sending Scylax of Caryanda to explore the river as early as 510 BC.

Source of Indus river in Ladakh (and how India got its name!)
Ice chunks float down the Zanskar river as it joins the Indus at the Saspul-Nimmo confluence. The Indus River in Ladakh, locally known as the Singhe Khababs (out of Lion's mouth), flows across the north west to the south east, passing through Ladakh and flows into Pakistan where it joined Shayok and Suru to become major historical Indus River. The river is said to have originated from the mouth of a lion in Mansarovar, in China-controlled Tibet. Thus it is also called Sengge Tsangpo or Lion River. As it flows from Tibet to Ladakh to Pakistan before meeting the Arabian Sea, it symbolically binds the people of the three nations. It is a common lifeline. One only wishes these ties could secure peace between warring neighbours. One of the earliest human civilisations settled on the banks of ... -

The Indus River Valley - War Between Pakistan & India
Zero Line with Dr. Kent Moors The Indus River - The Fight Between Pakistan & India http://zerolinekentmoors.com/ The Indus River Valley: Pakistan's "First-Use Policy" means they can preemptively start a nuclear war with India at any time -- and Indian Counter-Terrorism Expert Ajai Sahni feels it is no longer a question of whether, but of when. The Indus River Valley At War At the crux of the matter is the Indus River, which begins in India before crossing the Zero Line and entering Pakistan. Pakistan depends on the Indus River for agriculture, employment, and ultimately half of its GDP. With the Indus River supplying so much for each country, the indus river valley has become one of the most dangerous places on the face of the earth.

Aerial footage of Indus river - origin of India's name
Good stock footage of Indus river which can be seen aerially as one flies over the Leh valley. The Indus River is a major river in Asia which flows through Pakistan and through some parts of India, Jammu and Kashmir and China. It also has courses through western Tibet and Kashmir. Originating in the Tibetan Plateau in the vicinity of Lake Mansarovar, the river runs a course through the Ladakh region of Jammu and Kashmir, towards Gilgit and Baltistan and then flows in a southerly direction along the entire length of Punjab Pakistan to merge into the Arabian Sea near the port city of Karachi in Sindh. The total length of the river is 3,180 km (1,980 mi). It is Pakistan's longest river. The river has a total drainage area exceeding 1,165,000 km2 (450,000 sq mi). Its estimated annual flow st... -

Tarbela Dam
Tarbela Dam on the Indus River in Pakistan is the largest earth filled dam in the world and second largest by structural volume. It is located in Haripur District, Hazara Division, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, about 50 kilometres (31 mi) northwest of Islamabad. The dam is 485 feet (148 m) high above the riverbed. The dam forms the Tarbela Reservoir, with a surface area of approximately 250-square-kilometre (97 sq mi). The dam was completed in 1974 and was designed to store water from the Indus River for irrigation, flood control, and the generation of hydroelectric power. http://largest-dams-1.blogspot.com -

94 Indus River · Skardu, Pakistan
Indus River · Skardu, Pakistan Pakistans Lifeline The Indus is a river of many names. In Tibet, it is known as the Lion River; between the Himalaya and Karakoram ranges, it flows from the direction of the rising sun and people call it the Eastern River; in Pashto the name is Abasin Father of Rivers. The source of the Indus River is the Tibetan plateau. Fed by glaciers on the mountains of Himalaya, Karakoram and Hindu Kush, the river runs 3,000 km through hills and gigantic gorges before it reaches the flat plains of the Indus Valley in Pakistan and flows into the Arabian Sea. The Indus serves as a lifeline for the people of Pakistan. As it winds its way through the country, it nourishes temperate forests, plains and countryside. As the only major river system in one of the wo... -

Ice chunks float down the Zanskar river as it joins the Indus at the Saspul-Nimmo confluence.
The Indus River in Ladakh, locally known as the Singhe Khababs (out of Lion's mouth), flows across the north west to the south east, passing through Ladakh and flows into Pakistan where it joined Shayok and Suru to become major historical Indus River. The river is said to have originated from the mouth of a lion in Mansarovar, in China-controlled Tibet. Thus it is also called Sengge Tsangpo or Lion River. As it flows from Tibet to Ladakh to Pakistan before meeting the Arabian Sea, it symbolically binds the people of the three nations. It is a common lifeline. One only wishes these ties could secure peace between warring neighbours. One of the earliest human civilisations settled on the banks of the Indus. Even now, as you come down Tanglang La, you spot the first permanent settlements and green zone after Jispa at Rumtse, located along one of its tributaries.
The Indus river is the backbone of Ladakh—all the major places historically and currently, Shey, Leh, Basgo, and Tingmosgang, are situated close to the river. Water levels remain high during the month June to late August, which is the best season for fascinating rafting expeditions. The white water Indus has rapids generally of I and II grades and at some places, has grade III to even V rapids.
Ladakh is a region of India in the state of Jammu and Kashmir and lies between the Kunlun mountain range in the north and the main Great Himalayas to the south, inhabited by people of Indo-Aryan and Tibetan descent. It is one of the most sparsely populated regions in Jammu and Kashmir. It is also known as the "Land of High Passes". Ladakh is the highest plateau of state of Kashmir with much of it being over 3,000 m (9,800 ft). It spans the Himalayan and Karakoram mountain ranges and the upper Indus River valley. Ladakh district was a district of the Jammu and Kashmir state of India until 1 July 1979 when it was divided into Leh district and Kargil district. Each of these districts is governed by a Ladakh Autonomous Hill Development Council, which is based on the pattern of the Darjeeling Gorkha Autonomous Hill Council. These councils were created as a compromise solution to the demands of Ladakhi people to make Leh a union territory.
The economy of Ladakh rests on three pillars: the Indian Army, tourism, and civilian government in the form of jobs and extensive subsidies. Agriculture, the mainstay only one generation ago, is no longer a major portion of the economy, although most families still own and work their land.
For centuries, Ladakh enjoyed a stable and self-reliant agricultural economy based on growing barley, wheat and peas and keeping livestock, especially yaks, cows, dzos (a yak-cow cross breed), sheep and goats. At altitudes of 3,000 to 4,300 m (10,000 to 14,000 ft), the growing season is only a few months long every year, similar to the northern countries of the world. Animals are scarce and water is in short supply. The Ladakhis developed a small-scale farming system adapted to this unique environment. The land is irrigated by a system of channels which funnel water from the ice and snow of the mountains. The principal crops are barley and wheat. Rice was previously a luxury in the Ladakhi diet, but, subsidised by the government, has now become a cheap staple.
There are about 1,800 km (1,100 mi) of roads in Ladakh of which 800 km (500 mi) are surfaced. The majority of roads in Ladakh are looked after by the Border Roads Organisation. Another common route in regular use was the Kalimpong route between Leh and Lhasa via Gartok, the administrative centre of western Tibet. In present times, the only two land routes to Ladakh in use are from Srinagar and Manali. There is one airport in Leh, from which there are daily flights to Delhi on Jet Airways, Air Deccan, and Air India and weekly flights to Srinagar and Jammu. There are two airstrips at Daulat Beg Oldie and Fukche for military transport.

The Indus River Valley: Pakistan's "First-Use Policy" means they can preemptively start a nuclear war with India at any time -- and Indian Counter-Terrorism Expert Ajai Sahni feels it is no longer a question of whether, but of when.
The Indus River Valley At War
At the crux of the matter is the Indus River, which begins in India before crossing the Zero Line and entering Pakistan. Pakistan depends on the Indus River for agriculture, employment, and ultimately half of its GDP. With the Indus River supplying so much for each country, the indus river valley has become one of the most dangerous places on the face of the earth.
The Indus River Valley has Become One of The Most Dangerous Places on The Face of The Earth
In 1960, India and Pakistan inked a tense agreement regarding use of the Indus River & the Indus River Valley, but dangerous population growth on both sides has led to increased strain on the river for power generation and drastic measures on the part of India to secure sufficient hydropower to prevent sudden power outages.
But one additional factor has created a "line in the sand" moment between the two countries -- and could transform a water war into a full-blown nuclear war...

Good stock footage of Indus river which can be seen aerially as one flies over the Leh valley.
The Indus River is a major river in Asia which flows through Pakistan and through some parts of India, Jammu and Kashmir and China. It also has courses through western Tibet and Kashmir. Originating in the Tibetan Plateau in the vicinity of Lake Mansarovar, the river runs a course through the Ladakh region of Jammu and Kashmir, towards Gilgit and Baltistan and then flows in a southerly direction along the entire length of Punjab Pakistan to merge into the Arabian Sea near the port city of Karachi in Sindh. The total length of the river is 3,180 km (1,980 mi). It is Pakistan's longest river.
The river has a total drainage area exceeding 1,165,000 km2 (450,000 sq mi). Its estimated annual flow stands at around 207 km3 (50 cu mi), making it the twenty-first largest river in the world in terms of annual flow. The Zanskar is its left bank tributary in Ladakh. In the plains, its left bank tributary is the Chenab which itself has four major tributaries, namely, the Jhelum, the Ravi, the Beas and the Sutlej. Its principal right bank tributaries are the Shyok, the Gilgit, the Kabul, the Gomal and the Kurram. Beginning in a mountain spring and fed with glaciers and rivers in the Himalayas, the river supports ecosystems of temperate forests, plains and arid countryside.
The Indus forms the delta of present-day Pakistan mentioned in the Vedic Rigveda as Sapta Sindhu and the Iranian Zend Avesta as Hapta Hindu (both terms meaning "seven rivers"). The river has been a source of wonder since the Classical Period, with King Darius of Persia sending Scylax of Caryanda to explore the river as early as 510 BC.

Tarbela Dam on the Indus River in Pakistan is the largest earth filled dam in the world and second largest by structural volume. It is located in Haripur District, Hazara Division, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, about 50 kilometres (31 mi) northwest of Islamabad. The dam is 485 feet (148 m) high above the riverbed. The dam forms the Tarbela Reservoir, with a surface area of approximately 250-square-kilometre (97 sq mi). The dam was completed in 1974 and was designed to store water from the Indus River for irrigation, flood control, and the generation of hydroelectric power.

Indus River · Skardu, Pakistan
Pakistans Lifeline
The Indus is a river of many names. In Tibet, it is known as the Lion River; between the Himalaya and Karakoram ranges, it flows from the direction of the rising sun and people call it the Eastern River; in Pashto the name is Abasin Father of Rivers.
The source of the Indus River is the Tibetan plateau. Fed by glaciers on the mountains of Himalaya, Karakoram and Hindu Kush, the river runs 3,000 km through hills and gigantic gorges before it reaches the flat plains of the Indus Valley in Pakistan and flows into the Arabian Sea.
The Indus serves as a lifeline for the people of Pakistan. As it winds its way through the country, it nourishes temperate forests, plains and countryside. As the only major river system in one of the worlds most arid countries, it supplies water for irrigation in rural areas as well as for use in towns and cities.
For years, Pakistan has used the river as part of the biggest irrigation system in the world, turning 35.7 million acres of desert plain into cultivated farmland that accounts for two-thirds of the nations jobs and 80% of its exports.
Climate change, and the melting of the Tibetan glaciers, could turn the Indus into a seasonal river. Pakistan already suffers from water shortages but melting glaciers and a more irregular precipitation pattern could disrupt water supplies throughout the region.
In the absence of any other source of water, this would have a devastating effect on the Pakistani people. Eventually, the lack of water may lead to mass migration and imperil the very foundations of the national economy.

Rivers of Pakistan by Aziz Sanghur Part 03.flv
The Indus River is the most important river in Pakistan, and also the longest river. It begins in Tibet and flows into the Arabian Sea. The river system is fed mainly by snow and glaciers of the Himalayas and is one of the few rivers that exhibits a tidal bore. The flow is also determined by the seasons, being lower in winter, and over flowing it's banks in monsoon season, from July to September. The major cities of Indus River Valley Civilization date back to around 3300 BC. Paleolithic sites have been found with the stone tools of cave dwellers dating back 15,000 years. The Indus River delta is one of the driest on the Indian subcontinent, owing to the cyclones from the Arabian Sea.

Ganges River in India HD - India Tourism, India Vacation
World Travel https://www.youtube.com/user/World1Tube
The Ganges River, also called Ganga, is a river located in northern India that flows toward the border with Bangladesh (map). It is the longest river in India and flows for around 1,569 miles (2,525 km) from the Himalayan Mountains to the Bay of Bengal. The river has the second greatest water discharge in the world and its basin is the most heavily populated in the world with over 400 million people living in the basin.
The Ganges River is extremely important to the people of India as most of the people living on its banks use it for daily needs such as bathing and fishing. It is also significant to Hindus as they consider it their most sacred river.
Course of the Ganges River
The headwaters of the Ganges River begin high in the Himalayan Mountains where the Bhagirathi River flows out of the Gangotri Glacier in India's Uttarakhand state. The glacier sits at an elevation of 12,769 feet (3,892 m). The Ganges River proper begins farther downstream where the Bhagirathi and Alaknanda rivers join. As the Ganges flows out of the Himalayas it creates a narrow, rugged canyon.
The Ganges River emerges from the Himalayas at the town of Rishikesh where it begins to flow onto the Indo-Gangetic Plain. This area, also called the North Indian River Plain, is a very large, relatively flat, fertile plain that makes up most of the northern and eastern parts of India as well as parts of Pakistan, Nepal and Bangladesh. In addition to entering the Indo-Gangetic Plain at this area, part of the Ganges River is also diverted toward the Ganges Canal for irrigation in the Uttar Pradesh state.
As the Ganges River then flows farther downstream it changes its direction several times and is joined by many other tributary rivers such as the Ramganga, Tamsa and Gandaki rivers to name a few. There are also several cities and towns that the Ganges River passes through on its way downstream. Some of these include Chunar, Kolkata, Mirzapur, and Varanasi. Many Hindus visit the Ganges River in Varanasi as that city is considered the holiest of cities. As such, the city's culture is also closely tied into the river as it is the most sacred river in Hinduism.
Once the Ganges River flows out of India and into Bangladesh its main branch is known as the Padma River. The Padma River is joined downstream by large rivers like the Jamuna and Meghna rivers. After joining the Meghna it takes on that name before flowing into the Bay of Bengal. Prior to entering the Bay of Bengal however, the river creates the world's largest delta, Ganges Delta. This region is a highly fertile sediment laden area that covers 23,000 square miles (59,000 sq km).
It should be noted that the course of the Ganges River described in the above paragraphs is a general description of the river's route from its source where the Bhagirathi and Alaknanda rivers join to its outlet at the Bay of Bengal. The Ganges has a very complicated hydrology and there are several different descriptions of its overall length and the size of its drainage basin based on what tributary rivers are included. The most widely accepted length of the Ganges River is 1,569 miles (2,525 km) and its drainage basin is estimated to be about 416,990 square miles (1,080,000 sq km).
Population of the Ganges River
The Ganges River basin has been inhabited by humans since ancient times. The first people in the region were of the Harappan civilization. They moved into the Ganges River basin from the Indus River basin around the 2nd millennium B.C.E. Later the Gangetic Plain became the center of the Maurya Empire and then the Mughal Empire. The first European to discuss the Ganges River was Megasthenes in his work Indica.
In modern times the Ganges River has become a source of life for the nearly 400 million people living in its basin. They rely on the river for their daily needs such as drinking water supplies and food and for irrigation and manufacturing. Today the Ganges River basin is the most populated river basin in the world. It has a population density of about 1,000 people per square mile (390 per sq km).
Significance of the Ganges River
Aside from providing drinking water and irrigating fields, the Ganges River is extremely important to India's Hindu population for religious reasons as well. The Ganges River is considered their most sacred river and it is worshiped as the goddess Ganga Ma or "Mother Ganges" (Dunn).

The Indus - The Masters of the River
A Silent Civilisation. One of the most mysterious of these four civilisations is no doubt that which developed around the Indus, discovered only in 1920. Considered to be one of the world's most powerful rivers, the Indus has a flow rate twice as high as the Nile, and three times that of the Tigris and the Euphrates. Its geographical course enabled extensive communication to be developed and, at the same time, the rise of a prosperous civilisation, the Harappeans.What was the story of this recently discovered civilisation, and how can we explain its decline?

The Indus River is the most important river in Pakistan, and also the longest river. It begins in Tibet and flows into the Arabian Sea. The river system is fed mainly by snow and glaciers of the Himalayas and is one of the few rivers that exhibits a tidal bore. The flow is also determined by the seasons, being lower in winter, and over flowing it's banks in monsoon season, from July to September.
The major cities of Indus River Valley Civilization date back to around 3300 BC. Paleolithic sites have been found with the stone tools of cave dwellers dating back 15,000 years.
The Indus River delta is one of the driest on the Indian subcontinent, owing to the cyclones from the Arabian Sea. The extensive deforestation, industrial pollution and global warming are affecting the vegetation and wildlife of the delta.
The Indus River is the most important water supply for Punjab and Sindh, needed for agriculture and food production for Pakistan. Modern irrigation was begun by the British East Company, in 1850, with the construction of modern canals. This allows them to grow cotton, sugarcane and wheat. Fish farming is also made possible with the canals. It is also the main supply of potable water in Pakistan.
SINDHI NATIONALIST
According to Sindhi nationalist organizations, the federal government has been constructing dams and barrages on Indus River since the creation of the country.
They said that construction of dams and canal, which would play havoc with its agriculture which is already facing a serious threat due to consistent water shortage.
They termed these schemes as conspiracy of the establishment against the people of Sindh. The political circles of Sindh said that the government should exercise tolerance, accept the existence of Sindh and redress the grievances of the Sindhi people, before it was too late. They said it was better that the people of Sindh, who believed in peace, logic and open debates on issues, should be taken seriously by the establishment which was under the influence of the Punjab and was trying to give the international community the impression that the people of Sindh.
Indus is already short of required irrigation water, how can another project be started on the same river which is the main source of water supply to the province. Written By Aziz Sanghur

Swat Valley Tourism Information.Swat, the land of romance and beauty, is celebrated throughout the world as the holy land of Buddhist learning and piety.
The lush-green valley of Swat, with its rushing torrents, icy-cold lakes, fruit-laden orchards and flower-decked slopes is ideal for holidaymakers. It has a rich historical past, too. This is "Udayana" (The Garden) of the ancient epics; the land of enthralling beauty, where Alexander of Macedonia fought and won some of his major battles before crossing over to the delta of Indus River. This is the "valley of hanging chairs", as described by the famous Chinese pilgrim-chroniclers, Huaen Tsang and Fa-Hian in the fifth and sixth centuries. Swat was once the cradle of Buddhism of all of its schools – Mahayana, Hinayana and Tantrayana, where once 1,400 monasteries flourished. It was the home of the famous Gandhara School of Sculpture that was an expression of Greco-Roman form in the local Buddhist tradition. Swat was also the historical land where the Muslim conquerors, Mahmud of Ghazni, Babur of Ferghana and Akbar fought their battles preparatory to the conquest of South Asia. The valley of Swat sprawls over 10,360 sq. km at an average elevation of 875 metres. The maximum temperature in July is 38 C and minimum (during January) is 1 C. The normal temperature is maximum 21 C and minimum 7 C. The tourist season is year-round.
WHAT TO SEE IN SWAT?
Saidu Sharif, Mingora & Murghzar: Headquarters of Swat Valley, Saidu Sharif houses the Swat Museum that contains one of the finest collections of Gandhara art in the world. Mingora, the twin city of Saidu Sharif, has yielded magnificent pieces of Buddhist sculpture and the ruins of great stupas. Marghazar, 16 km from Saidu Sharif, is famous for its “Sufed Mahal” the white marble palace of the former Wali (Ruler) of Swat. Kabal is 6 km from Saidu Sharif with its excellent golf course.Malam Jabba
At 2,636 m above sea level, Malam Jabba Ski Resort stands on top of a mountain of the Hindukush range, north east of Saidu Sharif. It is 314 km from Islamabad and 51 km from Saidu Sharif. After driving for 10 kms on Saidu Sharif-Kalam road, turn right from Manglor for Malam Jabba. Amidst its natural beauty and imprints of Gandhara civilization, lie the modern tourist facilities of a 52 rooms motel, 2 skiing platforms, chairlifts, roller/ice skating rinks, restaurant, telephone and snow clearing equipment etc. The food, lodging and skiing facilities are all managed by foreign trained staff and offered at competitive prices. The summer temperatures of 10oC to 25oC give way to lush green meadows and thick green forests of Pine & Deodar trees. In the winter when the temperature falls to –5oC to –10oC, the angel white snow makes it an ideal place for skiing.
Miandam: At 1,830 m above sea level, Miandam Valley is 50 km from Saidu Sharif and recommended for those looking for a peaceful place full of fragrance and scenic beauty.
Madyan & Bahrain: Both the towns are a good stop-over while travelling from Saidu Sharif to Kalam. Madyan is famous for its trout hatcheries and Bahrain for its meeting of two rivers and its handicrafts.
Kalam: The most popular tourist spot in Swat Valley (2,073 m) is 100 km away from Saidu Sharif. In addition to PTDC’s seasonal coach service, there is a regular private bus and van service between Mingora and Kalam.

Rājasthān is the largest state of the Republic of India in terms of area. It encompasses most of the area of the large, inhospitable Great Indian Desert (Thar Desert), which has an edge paralleling the Sutlej-Indus river valley along its border with Pakistan. The region borders Pakistan to the west, Gujarat to the southwest, Madhya Pradesh to the southeast, Uttar Pradesh and Haryana to the northeast and Punjab to the north. Rajasthan covers an area of 132,150 sq mi or 342,269 km² (about the size of Germany).
The state capital is Jaipur. Geographical features include the Thar Desert along north-western Rajasthan and the termination of the Ghaggar River near the archaeological ruins at Kalibanga, which are the oldest in the subcontinent discovered so far.
One of the world's oldest mountain ranges, the Aravalli Range, cradles the only hill station of Rajasthan, Mount Abu, and its world-famous Dilwara Temples, a sacred pilgrimage for Jains. Eastern Rajasthan has two national tiger reserves, Ranthambore and Sariska, as well as Keoladeo National Park near Bharatpur, once famous for its bird life.
Rajasthan was formed on 30 March 1949, when all erstwhile princely states ruled by Rajputs, known as Rajputana, merged into the Dominion of India. The only difference between erstwhile Rajputana and Rajasthan is that certain portions governed directly by the British Raj, in the former province of Ajmer-Merwara, were included. Portions lying geographically outside of Rajputana such as the Tonk state were given to Madhya Pradesh.
Rajasthan is home to many courageous heroes, admired for their courage, strength and determined struggles. A few popular heroes are Bappa Rawal, Rana Sangha, Pratap Singh and Prithviraj Chauhan.

Pakistan is the land of the Indus river,which flows through the country for 2500 km from Himalaya and Karakoram mountain ranges to the Arabian sea. it is a land of snow- covered peaks and burning desert, of fertile mountain valleys and irrigated plains.created in 1947 as a homeland for the Muslims of the Indian subcontinent, it is peopled by some 180 million inhabitants representing and array of ethnic groups but united by the Islamic faith.
The land of pure is strategically placed at the crossroads of Asia, where the road from china to the Mediterranean meets the route from India to central Asia .for thousands of years, this junction has been a melting pot of diverse cultures, attracting traders and adventurers, pilgrims and holy men.now the old Chinese trade route is reopened the spectacular Karakoram Highway threads its way through the Himalayas, Karakorams and Pamirs, following the ancient silk route and entering china over the 4733 Metres khunjerab pass, the highest metalled border crossing in the world.
Pakistan,s 4000-year history is richly illustrated by archaeological sites and imposing monuments scattered the length and breadth of the country.Brick cities from the Indus civilization, which flourished around 2000 BC, stand beside Buddhist ruins contemporaneous with the birth of Christianity. Magnificent Muslim tombs from the the 12th century vie with palaces, mosques and forts of the Moghul Emperors of the 16th and 17 centuries.
The country,s main cities reflect the many influences, both historical and modern, that have made Pakistan what it is.Lahore, close to the Indian border, is the cultural centre of the country, with an elegant core of moghul architecture embellished by the flowery exuberance of Victorian Britain.Peshawar , on the North- west frontier with Afghanistan, is a city straight out of the Arabian Nights,.Islamabad, the federal capital , is a modern garden city planned by Greek architects.finally , vivacious Karachi, with its population of 15 million, is a huge, bustling port and industrial Centre.
Pakistan is striking in the variety o its colours; the fruits and vegetables carefully stacked in the bazaars, the ornately decorated trucks and buses, the bright red and orange turbans and veils, the gold and amber of autumn leaves againt snow-clad mountains.
Various also are the country,s attractions, with something for everyone.Pakistan boasts some of the best moutaineering and trekking in the world,exciting archaeological sites, beautiful monuments,lively cities and friendly peeople.To the spirit hungry for exploration and adventure, Pakistan calls.
