Rawal Dam was developed in 1962. It is arranged in the National Capital Islamabad, Pakistan. Essentially it is a counterfeit reservior of water and is an incredible wellspring of water supply to Rawalpindi and Islamabad, the twin urban communities of Pakistan. This reservior of water is called Rawal Lake and is spread over a zone of 8.8km sqaure. It is assume to be that "Korang River" alongside some little streams descending from the Margala Hills gather together to frame this lake. This lake give water to the twin urban communities as well as help in water system.

On both sides of the Rawal Lake two parks have been developed. One is the recently development, arranged on Murree street and is called as "Lake View Park". Lake see Park is new that is the reason it is accepting more guests in comparision to the Rawal Dam stop which is bit more established. Rawal Dam.....with a lake in and a Park around, in capital Islamabad " An excellent blend of water and gardens" One's goal is never a place … Another one which iam going to say here is more established one and is arranged close " Rawal Dam".

Both parks are shafts apart.Locals oftentimes visit here amid nights. Dusk at Rawal Lake is exceptionally delightful. Many individuals visit here, sit

here and unwind. The range around the lake have been embellished with various kind of trees, patio nurseries, strolling tracks and so on. This lake offers different games exercises like angling, drifting, paddling, paddling, cruising and so forth. The games occasions normally masterminded by CDA or certain neighborhood non legislative open and private gatherings. Iam very acquainted with Rawal Dam Park since my adolescence. I have gone by here a few circumstances with family and for the most part amid the school trips. I recollect exceptionally well those days the place used to be vivacious and with bubbly environment. It is not so as though it is abandoned now but rather still I felt as though this stop is dismissed by its powers too by the guests. Amid schools trips i was truly tired of this stop in light of the fact that each circumstances we were bring here in transit once more from Murree that is the reason I didnt visit here from last numerous years. In any case, this time I have decide on Rawal Dam Park since I needed to see it back after such quite a while. I have found that stop is not appropriately caring for. Because of carelessness the greenery enclosures have lost its freshness and magnificence. One of the critical component of this stop i have neglected to specify before is that at one side of the recreation center one can see the hustle clamor of Rawalpindi city known as "pindi view point" while the another that is lake side fronted towards Margala Hills alongside Murree Hills far away at the other corner of the Lake. So when i been to pindi see point i have seen that the garden there looks more like a garbage yard than a garden.

Loads of shopping sacks and purge juice jars were tossed there by the reckless guests. I found a quiet camel staying there alone was adding magnificence to the environment. In spite of the fact that the perspective of rawalpindi city is

not clear in the photos. There is one heighest crest point in this stop offers an all encompassing perspective of the lake. It offers an awesome perspective of the lake with a long ways behind Margala and Murree Hills. One can likewise observe the recently developed stop "Rawal Lake see Park" from here. Stairs prompting to this top point from the greenhouses. I have specified these lights as "acclaimed light lights" since it has a specific foundation behind. 

 

In the event that some body ever watched Pakistan old films of Shabnam, Babra and so on, you may see the heroin moving around these lights , that have been introduced here in these patio nurseries. Those days the majority of the movies shooted in Islamabad, Murree Hills. "Rawal Dam Park" and "Shakar Pariyan" were the two most loved parks for the motion picture chiefs in Islamabad. Well i should state that I have delighted in going to here again after such long years. Also, I get nostalgic, it remind me all the time I have ever gone by here in past with my school companions.

Baltit Fort remained formally had until 1945, when the last pioneer of Hunza, Mir Muhammad Jamal Khan, moved to another palatial house support down the slant, where the present Mir of Hunza, Mir Ghazanfar Ali Khan, and his family are up 'til now living. With no genuine power enriched the Fort was exhibited to the assaults of time and during the time its structure crippled and began to come apart.
