The idea to explore Balochistan's Jhal Magsi region was quite literally inspired by a mystical oasis I saw in a "best of Balochistan" article a few months ago and fell in love with. Pir Chattal Noorani Gandhawa is like a cross between something out of an ancient Roman fantasy and a magical place from Avatar. It is a MUST VISIT spot for anyone travelling not only Balochistan, but I would say for anyone travelling Pakistan because it's now on my Top 5 List of things to see in the country. In addition to the magical oasis of Pir Chattal, I'll also show you the famous annual event that takes place there: the Jhal Magsi Desert Challenge rally race. We'll spend time with hundreds of camels. And I have a couple of "this would seriously only happen in Jhal Magsi" stories to share. Given that this region is tribal-led and not governed in the same traditional ways we all expect districts and provinces to be run, it makes for some crazy stories from my days spent as a solo female traveller in Jhal Magsi!
I had a wonderful time exploring Jhal Magsi. They aren't quite setup for tourism yet but you can camp, which I would 100% recommend. Just please respect the environment and always remove everything you bring with you to keep this pretty land as lovely as it is today.
If you missed my first video where I explored mosques, tombs, shrines, and the pretty Moola River, watch it here: • Balochistan, Pakistan ...
