 This post is the continuation of a series where I am trying to show to the world that there is more to Pakistan than a strong propaganda of a terrorist-state image. 

Here are the links to the previous posts:

Today I am going to tell you about some of the famous lakes in the country. Pakistan might not be a huge country but it sure is big enough to have mighty mountains, desert, coastal region and agricultural land. throughout the length there are may lakes with very distinctive features of their own.

There are lakes located in some very unimaginable and inaccessible locations but if you can reach them; your whole perspective of the enchanting beauty will change.

If I dare say, at certain points you might even forget the beauty of Swiss Alps. :P

Here I will just mention some famous lakes across the country.

1. Attabad Lake

The lake was craeted out of landslides and destruction of human habitat. But now it is a marvel to watch.
