NASA’s Landsat 8 satellite captured Hingol National Park, Pakistan.
Hingol National Park is one of the largest national parks in Pakistan, located in the Makran coastal region. The park is named after the southern part of the Hangul River, which flows along the shores of the Arabian Sea and is home to large numbers of waterfowl and a wealth of marine life. Hangul National Park contains six distinct ecosystems, as well as both desert and plains regions, making it unique among the national parks of Pakistan. The park is bordered by a dense forest to the north, a barren mountain range to the south, and the Hangul River tributary, which is home to thousands of migratory birds and marsh crocodiles. The Gulf of Oman and the Arabian Sea are also to the south. Hingol was declared a national park in 1988.
The local scenery on the ground is as follows.
