Karachi is the capital of the Pakistani region of Sindh. It is the biggest city in Pakistan, and seventh biggest city on the planet.
Situated on the shoreline of the Arabian Sea, north-west of the Indus River Delta, the super city is the biggest city, cultural, affordable, magnanimous, instructive, and political center point, as well as the biggest port, of the country.

It is locally named as the City of Lights for its exuberance and the City of The Quaid, for not exclusively being both the birth and demise place of Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah the founder of Pakistan.

Archaeological sites

There are three UNESCO World Heritage Sites near Karachi around 90Km drive.
1st: The Chaukhandi Tombs around 30 kilometers east of Karachi were developed between 15th and 18th Century. The Chaukhandi Tombs currently structure a strikingly very much protected necropolis that frequently draws in inquisitive visitors, archeologists and photographers.
