Pakistan is a country which is absolutely a gem for the tourists.The historical places in Pakistan attract the whole world because of its rich history and one of the oldest civilizations of this world had lived where Pakistan stands today.
I got such a chance this December, when my friends and i decided to travel and capture the heritages & beauty of Thatta.
Our first visit was Chaukhandi, the Chaukhandi Tombs is an Islamic graveyard situated East of Karachi near the Landhi Town in Pakistan. Built during the Mughal Rule sometime between the 15th and 18th century is the family graveyard of the Jokhio and Baluch tribes.
The style of architecture is typical to the region of Sindh

After a visit to chaukhandi we decide to move to Bhambore
Bhambore is a perfect excursion place to see the ancient history and cultural heritage of Pakistan. Yet now there is not much on this site.
Some archaeologist and historians suggest that Banbhore is the historical city of Debal, which the Arab general Muhammad Bin Qasim conquered in 711–712 after defeating Raja Dahir, the last Hindu ruler of Sindh.
