Tharparkar Desert in Pakistan is your next destination

Tharparkar Desert in Pakistan is your next destination

Pakistan is now becoming a tourist destination for all travelers around the world.

The Tharparkar Desert in Pakistan is rich in history; its forts, ashrams, mosques, and temples show that it has been a land of diversity. A mixture of different cultures, and a land of peace.

Law and Order situations created a barrier for locals as well as for international adventurists, but improvements in the law and order situation have now boosted the economy of Pakistan in the tourism sector.

The Pakistani Government has also played an important role in facilitating explorers, but this sector deserves more attention.

Though the majority of our country’s tourist destinations are in the Northern areas, such as Murree, Naran Kaghan, Swat, and Gilgit-Baltistan, as citizens of a developing country, it is impossible for everyone to pack their bags up for north to other areas. Fortunately, Pakistan has a lot to offer to tourists and explorers in every part of the country, from high mountains to deserts.

Every year during the monsoon season, the Tharparkar Desert in Sindh comes alive. This is the world’s ninth-largest desert, and it is also the world’s only fertilized desert. After proper monsoon rains, when its drought-stricken soil transforms into green meadows, it attracts hundreds of tourists and explorers.

Tourists planning a trip to Tharparkar must visit the historical fort, Tharparkar desert, offering new streams of amazement to those who are interested in history and architecture.

Gaddi Bhitt is another beautiful place in the Mithi city of Tharparkar. Made of sandhill, this Gaddi hill/peak provides you with an opportunity to see Mithi city in a blink of an eye. It is, simply, a Damn-e-Koh of this ancient city, and a headquarter of Tharparkar. This is amongst the few cities of Pakistan that were named after a female.

A trip to the Thar Desert will teach you about Muslim and Hindu brotherhood and harmony.

This desert is home to many temples of the Jain religion.

The Thar Desert, a region of peacocks, camels, music, architecture, natural waterfalls, and coal mines, should be your next destination this monsoon season. Villages like Chorio and Kasbo, the ancient city and old port of Sindh’s Pari Nagar, Nangarparkar, will lead you to an amazing world of interesting finds and folk tales.  Bhalwa village that owns the famous folktale of Umer and Marui is eye-catching for visitors.

Thar is not to be missed during a visit because of its ultimately breathtaking landscapes and temples surrounded by mountains and water streams.

Here, you will find local guides, and most of the time, they will not ask for money in return. Children climb over the hills in puffs of smoke and their accent and style of the Datki language will compel you to listen to every word of theirs twice: “Bejo Kher hay” (Hope all is well) is common among them.

The cherry on the top is that the locals of Thar can teach you how to survive in the most difficult times of life. The poverty-riddled and drought-stricken people of the region face the hot summers, defend themselves against inflation, and still offer their smiles to everyone.

Bitcoin miners in Texas are breaking new ground

bitcoin

Chad Harris, the CEO of Whinstone Inc., which operates North America’s largest bitcoin “mine,” recalls one of the last times Texas’ electric power crisis is now also his problem.

It was in June, and the temperature in the evening had risen to roughly 94 degrees, significantly higher than the state’s average for that time of year.

Texans were cranking up their air conditioning, putting a strain on the state’s grid, which had already failed for days during a cold spell in February, was exhausting.

“We just got a text saying, The power grid needs support. Please curtail now,’ ” Harris said while standing outside the company’s mining center at an old Alcoa aluminum facility about six miles outside this Central Texas town.

Instantly, Whinstone’s system went offline. The tens of thousands of computer servers that spin away generating bitcoin inside three long buildings simply stopped. “With the flip of a switch, we turned this off,” Harris said.

Lanka Premier League 2021 Has Been Rescheduled for November

Lanka Premier League

The second edition of the Lanka Premier League has been postponed to November-December due to the unavailability of foreign players, the country’s cricket board said on Friday.

The T20 league was scheduled to begin from July 29 but has been postponed to November 19 to December 12

“The Governing Council of the Lanka Premier League is of the view that rescheduling the tournament will enable more players from leading cricket-playing nations to take part in the league,” Sri Lanka Cricket said in a statement.

“The Council made this decision after assessing that at least one similar premier league and several international tours will be played among the cricketing nations during August 2021, during the period, which the LPL 2nd edition was expected to be played.”

According to a list released by SLC earlier this month, Bangladesh all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan, South Africa white-ball captain Temba Bavuma, West Indies batsman Nicholas Pooran, and No.1-ranked T20I bowler Tabraiz Shamsi were among the players who had signed up for the event.

The decision follows a long-running dispute between Sri Lankan players and the country’s cricket authority (SLC) over national contracts, which ended on Wednesday with 29 of the 30 players signing up for the India series.

According to a report, the LPL is also “without three of the five franchises that competed in the inaugural season last year.”
