Pakistan is a beautiful and diverse country with a varied landscape and multiple ethnicities. The natural scenery of Pakistan ranges from the high mountain peaks in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa to the fertile plains of Punjab which give way beautifully to the dry and arid deserts of Sindh and Baluchistan. However, the hot landscape of the Southern regions of Pakistan alters smoothly into the golden beaches of Makran and Karachi coastlines. In addition, the streams and rivers flowing throughout the length of Pakistan cools down the landscape and make provisions for agricultural crops and dams.
