| Kalka Devi Beside Sukkur | ||

At a short distance from Sukkur There are few temples of Hindus which are of the Kali Mata & Durga (Kalka Devi). It is said that Kali when traveling to Hinglag (Baluchistan ) stayed here. Many Hindus come for a pilgrimage (Teerath ) and go through a dark cave to perform their ritual The people here are very friendly and it can be really interesting to see how rituals are performed here. |

On the way to the caves you can also stop at Ganjo Takar a small temple on top of a gigantic bolder if you want to test your rock climbing skills this is perfect When I went there I saw there was no statue and on top it was written (He hane Masjid AAhe) {This is a Mosque Now)!!! Later visit Ruins of the City of Aror which is located only 9 Kilometers from Sukkur is the site where |

Mohammed bin Qasim (The First Arab Conqueror ) built a famous Mosque in 726 AD which lives even today and an Imam still performs prayer there . If you are an archeologist mind you may hike to the citadel and probably can find some coins of that period. (8th to 13 Century) Return to Sukkur late evening. |
