The artificial environment can captivate us a bit and is powerless to unwind our minds. As far as I have a traveling satchel and camera I am alive. Somehow many travelers would concede too but before striding to the wonderful place let me conclude the point regarding the magnificence of Pakistan. Tourists not only visit this elegant country as it's beautiful but also the fact, safe country to tour and has humble people. Now let's see where I went and what sort of historical information I have bought for you.
It's Neela Wahan ( blue locale) situated in the city Kallar Kahar of Punjab province. This whole region is registered as Chumbi Surla national park now. Hehe, it's my hometown and I can't believe this has happened.
- Wildlife here included jackal, Striped hyenas, wild rabbits, deer, and wild goats.
Bird species commonly seen are partridge, falcon, dove, and peacock.
- Fossil record
Now you will be wondering why this is a pool, it's a hilly area, having multiple ponds and salt ranges too. According to pentalogy records fossils of marine fish are found here. This supports the hypothesis that in the past it was the fraction of ocean and salt range that confirms this point too.
See this water is coming from underground water Cascade and it's more preferable for bathing purposes in case one has an allergic disease because the texture of the water is salty. If you want to test the PH of the water you will find it between 7.7-8. Thereby the visitors do enjoy the bath to get rid of multiple sorts of diseases.
If I look into the history of accidents of drowning that happened here most of them involved inexperienced people who chose a high hill for jumping. Reports concluded their death due to a head injury or heart attack.
So if you want to do practice swimming stay limited to the northern area of the lake. Green is itself eye-catching and mesmerizing.
Although it's hilly so beware to bring sports shoes for climbing.
Food places hehe how can you forget the traditional food of Pakistan being served here along with quality and less cost. Don't forget to visit Shanwari for enjoying Dumba karahi (roasted lamb)
Here are some images to show the beauty of Neela Wahan.
Also, Khabeki jheel, Katehni Jheal, bagh jheel, and kallar kahar itself are famous for fishing and outing. You will find grass carp, Tilapia, Silver carp, Rohu, Thalla, and more in the diversity of edible fish.
Although I had a shortage of images to show you the complete view of this Chumbi sarla National Park if you find it enough does share your point of view. I can be your tour guide if you are planning to visit Kallar Kahar 😁🤩
Thanks for reading.
