Promotion of ecotourism in salt range pakistanafopakrana
The Salt Range comprise two rows of low lying rugged hills that run east to west between the Soan and Jhelum rivers from the Grand Trunk Road near Jhelum city to the River Indus near Kalabagh. This area is said to record 600 million years of the earth’s history. Its name comes from the vast deposits of rock salt exposed and mined at khewra. The salt was left behind when the sea, which extended over the Indus plains and the Potohar plateau, evaporated 600 million yeas ago. The rocks and fossils fund around the salt range provide a complete record of the history of the Earth.
The Salt Range Wetlands Complex comprised of a series of adjacent lakes – Kallar Kahar, Khabbeki, Ucchali, Jhalar and Namal. These lakes provide an important wintering ground for migratory birds and is core habitat for the endemic Punjab Urial. Pakistan Wetlands Programme has launched a comprehensive project for the conservation and protection of these important lakes.
Historically this region is also very rich. Alexander the Great passé through the Salt Range on his way to do battle with Porus on the banks of the Jhelum River in 326 BC. In the 3rd century BC, this area became part of Ashoka’s Buddhist Empire. Towards the end of the Buddhist period, in the 6th century AD, there was a kingdom in the Salt Range called Singhapura, probably centered at Ketas. From 7th to 10th centuries, the Salt Range Was part of powerful Kashmiri Hindu kingdom. Mahmood Ghazni invaded the region in the early 11th century. The local tribes were converted to Islam at this time. This area has a great potential of ecotourism and STFP is working with concerned stakeholders to develop program for the promotion of ecotourism in this region.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

• Unique tourism destination can
or cannot form a part of tourism
circuit depending on the
willingness of a travel.
• These theme based tourism can
also be from tourist visiting the
unique destinations, tourist
need not be from the delineated
region.
• Theme based tourist circuit days
may increase or decrease
depending on the tourist
interest.
• These circuits will attract focus
groups like nature lovers,
anthropologist, historians, back

THEME BASED TOURISM CIRCUITS
• Overnight tourism circuits will be effective with good accommodation units of all grades in destination but other than
Puducherry there are no good hotels in the surrounding region which would be a major setback for these potential tourism
circuits.
• This circuit can be taken up my tourist depending on the time.
• Unlike theme based circuits, these circuits would be ideal for any normal tourist who is willing to know the place.
• This circuit would be ideal for people who want to see maximum number of place in less time.

TOURISM POTENTIAL ANALYSIS-DESTINATION –WISE RATING
• Three destinations are identified to be very high
potential zones for tourism based on the existing
scenario, very high potential zones are concentrated in
Puducherry and the east coast. Hence this corridor has
good potential for tourism
• High potential zones are equally distributed in and
around the region, this regions can be aimed to
strengthen more based on the SWOT analysis
• Medium and low potential zones are equally scattered in
the identified tourism circuits, the tourism potential of
this region can be increased by taking the positivity's of
other high potential zones and induce a integrated
development of all the destinations.
