Sights/Landmarks
Bado Hill Station is a Hill Station of Sindh, Pakistan. It is situated at an elevation of 3000 ft (914 m) in the Kirthar Mountains, 65 km (40 mi) southwest of Sehwan city of Dadu district. It is an attractive place for nature-lovers due to its pleasant weather and beautiful surroundings as it is adjacent to several beautiful Plateaus and mountains of the Kirthar Ranges. Adjacent to the Bado there is a very beautiful oasis named Kaai where one can enjoy cool shade of dense trees and springs of water.
Bado Jabal (Mountain), or Badro Jabal, is a peak of Kirthar range that separates Sindh from Balochistan. Bado Jabal is a large plateau approximately 3250 ft high above mean sea-level (some people says its height is 3500 ft). The weather at the hill in summer is very pleasant, with moderate temperatures during the day, dropping to slightly chilly at night. In winter, however, the temperature goes down to almost 0 degree centigrade. Ariel view of Bado presents a beautiful view of a valley. The area is surrounded by arid mountains with small green pastures at certain points. Bado Jabal is also famous for availability of Unani plants called Paneer.
Though, road conditions from Sehwan Sharif towards Bado Jabal are not in good condition, you can easily drive the car toward the top of the mountain. Further south a network of jeep-able tracks connect the deep area of hills with black top road. During the rainy season, various streams of water can be observed flowing throughout the area. Every footstep at Bado Jabal is scenic, and Manchar lake can also be seen from Bado Jabal.
