| The geography of Pakistan is a profound blend of landscapes varying from plains to deserts, forests, hills and plateaus ranging from the coastal areas of the Arabian sea in the South to high mountain ranges of the sub-continental North: the Himalayas, the Karakorams and the Hindu Kush. The vast and rich irrigated plains of the Indus basin covering vast tracts of the Punjab and Sindh, the deserts of Cholistan (Punjab) and Thar (Sindh), the inter-mountain valleys of the North West Frontier Province (NWFP)1 and the awe-inspiring rugged plateaus of Balochistan and the meeting point of the Himalayas, the Hindu Kush and the Karakoram in the Northern Areas (NA) are some of the most varied features of the country‟s landscape (ICIMOD, 1998).
Geographically, Pakistan lies between 24° and 37° N latitude and 61° and 75° E longitude. It is bordered by China in the North, Arabian sea in the South, Iran in the West, Afghanistan in the North-West and India in the East (ICIMOD, 1998). |

Geographically, Pakistan lies between 24° and 37° N latitude and 61° and 75° E longitude.
