Rugged and rustic landscape is truly stunning. Looks like rocky mountains, Colorado, US. Mekran coastal highway passes some amazing territory and emerald green beaches. Looks surreal.

Pakistan ranks in the group of ten countries in the world with the most varied landscape, all seasons, all type of terrain, from deserts to glaciers, from mountains to plains, from beaches to landlocked mountains. Some of the largest glaciers are in Pakistan which is a source of fresh water. Need to preserve the bio diversity and sustain the environment.
It is actually good that northern areas and many other parts are less and sparsely populated.
