Historical Places

Heritage can be broadly classified in a number of ways, namely inheritance, legacy, tradition, birth right and / or custom. But when we define heritage, are we really hinting at all of the above? Truly one’s heritage is not restricted to his/her immediate family, or geographical region. When we talk about a slightly broader issue of our land, The Indus Valley, we cannot restrict it to the areas that come under present Pakistan, for the land is joined to many other regions and for most part has been under rule from one area or another. The values that present Pakistan carries are also a result of its direct association with its neighboring regions and events. So indirectly our heritage is an outcome of a wide cross section of bridges and cultural exchanges that have resulted from human history and presence on this earth.
