Taunsa Barrage - Kot Addu

Actually this is a beautiful picnic place for a day trip. there are few good and well maintained resturants and sights. but the river is not clean and dig destroys the beauty of this place. unfortunately they find plastic bottles and lay packages swimming in the water.

A bridge on Indus River with a very massive barrage spread along 1.36 KM and controls over a Million Cusec water. This bridge also have a small opening for providing a safe passage to navigation Ships across the river from upstream to downstream. This bridge is also a connection between two major pieces of land across river. A train track is also passing through this. This was constructed in 1958.

It is the largest barrage in Punjab which supplies many areas with water and fishing. It has parks and boating facilities for families. You can enjoy fish here Jhalli fish wich is number 1 in taste with no spikes.

Excellent place for local visitors, foods are not so good on any restaurant

Visited this place in 2015 and it was a fantastic visit. When we returned from here unfortunately a rain storm started and it become very difficult to drive in that rain. There was a canal road on which we tarveled and the storm was so heavy that it felt like someone fetching the buckets of water from canal and pouring on us, we can not see the road in our car. Fortunately there come a bus from behind us and we followed that bus and reached our destination successfully. Thanx to Allah Almighty.
