Lake Manchar

About

Lake Manchar (Sindhi, Urdu), also spelled Manchhar, is the largest natural freshwater lake in Pakistan, and one of the largest in South Asia. It is located west of the Indus River, in Jamshoro and Dadu districts of Sindh, 18 kilometres (11 mi) away from Sehwan. Lake Manchar collects water from numerous small streams in the Kirthar Mountains, and then empties into the Indus River. The lake's surface area fluctuates with the seasons, from as little as 36 km2, to as much as 500 km2 during monsoon rains.
