New initiative aims to boost tourism with scenic flights and highlight Sindh’s ancient heritage
The Sindh government has announced the launch of an air safari service between Karachi and Mohenjo-Daro to promote cultural tourism and showcase the province’s rich historical heritage.
The initiative is part of broader efforts to attract tourists and provide a unique travel experience. An agreement has been signed between the Sindh Tourism Development Corporation (STDC) and a private aviation company to operationalize the project. The agreement was formally signed by Managing Director Fayaz Ali Shah and CEO Imran Aslam.
Scenic Experience for Tourists
Officials have said that the air safari will offer visitors a bird’s eye view of Karachi’s sea, mangrove forests and the beautiful landscape of Sindh. Your service will provide a memorable journey to local and foreign tourists and promote the beauty of the nature of knowledge.
About Mohenjo-Daro
Mohenjo-daro is one of the oldest cities in the world, dating back about 5,000 years and part of the Indus Valley Civilization. It was discovered in 1920, and means “the mound of the dead”, but its original name is still unknown.
The city was very developed in its time. It had straight streets, a good drainage system, and high edifices. One of its most notable features was the Great Baths, which were once a pool of water surrounded by changing rooms.
Interestingly, no evidence of a king or a warrior has been found here, suggesting that the people lived in peace and darkness. Experts say that this city gradually disappeared due to the changing course of the river.
Tourism and Preservation Efforts
Officials have said that the air safari is not for surfing, but also to understand the ancient history of Sindh. Experts have warned that if it is not maintained, Mohenjo-Daro could disappear by 2030.
The Sindh government hopes this initiative will boost tourism, generate economic activity, and encourage preservation efforts for one of the world’s most important archaeological sites.
