Explore More About Lal Suhanra National Park of Pakistan:
Lal Suhanra is a national park in Pakistan that is situated in the Bahawalpur district of Punjab province. It is one of South Asia's largest nationals parks and is a UNESCO declared Biosphere Reserve. Lal Sohanra is notable for the diversity of its landscape, which includes desert, forest, and wetland ecosystems.
Lal Suhanra Biosphere Reserve and National Park are situated on the northwest edge of the Cholistan Desert in the Punjab Province of Pakistan. This arid landscape is relatively flat and interspersed with sand dunes up to 1,000 hectares in extent and 4 meters in height, some of which are unstable. The biosphere reserve is crossed by the dried-up bed of the Hakra River and comprises Patisar Lake and irrigated land.
The lake (1,935 hectares) was originally built as a water reservoir and used to be an important wetland as a wintering site for many waterfowls. However, today the pond supports extensive reed beds, submerged, and floating aquatic vegetation, thus it has lost its habitat function for most birds.
There are archaeological remains of an ancient civilization that once flourished along the Hakra River. The about 6,000 people in the biosphere reserve mostly follow their traditional nomadic lifestyle (1997) but also benefit from tourism. The area attracts about 1 million national and 50,000 foreign tourists each year (1997). Television, radio, and cinemas as well as field trips and lectures are used to increase environmental awareness in the area. A perfect tour of here for nature and wildlife lovers with lots of things to learn and experience.
