Nature Lover's Paradise's video: 8 Top Attractions to Explore in Bahawalpur - Pakistan The City of Palaces Nawabs 4K Ultra HD

The Abbasid dynasty ruled the erstwhile princely State of Bahawalpur for two centuries; and for over half of this period it existed as a protectorate of the British raj. The State came into being in the middle of the 18th century partly as a consequence of the waning control of the Mughal Empire. The power vacuum caused by the atrophy of the Mughal rule resulted in the emergence of more than 500 semi-autonomous states and fiefdoms across the subcontinent, out of which 70 princely states were prominent and significant enough for their rulers to warrant the title of “Highness”. The State of Bahawalpur (spanning an area of 45,911 km2 near the confluence of the rivers Sutlej and Chenab) was one of them. Named after the first Nawab, Mohamad Bahawal Khan II, the State of Bahawalpur was ruled by 8 generations before being merged into Pakistan in October of 1955. At the present, Bahawalpur is the 12th largest city of Pakistan & is know as the land of Rohi - Cholistan desert. * Here's my pick of 8 best destinations to visit in Bahawalpur - The City of Palaces & Nawabs Places in this video: 1.
