Documentary on Nowshera District

Nowshera, also pronounced in Pashto as Nowkhar, is a district in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
Located in the Valley of Peshawar, Nowshera lies on the banks of Kabul River, and is approximately 43 km east of the provincial capital - Peshawar, along the historic Grand Trunk Road.
The video-documentary starts with the calmly flowing Kabul River and its railway and road link bridges on it. The majestic view of the British-era built railway bridge is eye-catching.
Nowshera is also famous for its sweet and juicy oranges and other citrus fruits, and one can see the vast orchards of orange trees in the video.
Then the camera clicks on the magnificent British-era Taj Building established in 1920. Located along the GT Road, the building reminds us the bygone era when the Great Britain ruled over this part of the world.
During British rule, Nowshera was a town and cantonment as well as tehsil of the Peshawar district.
The majestic structure of the Kaka Sahib Shrine in hilly area of the district is another segment in the video that provides spiritual comfort and consolation. The dome and tomb and the adjacent mosque are worth seeing sights in the shrine, which are always abuzz with the devotees and visitors.
People throng Kakak Sahib’s shrine everyday in a large number for seeking solace and spiritual delight. Devotees from far and wide visit the shrine to pay their respects to the Sufi saint.
The complex of the Sufi saint comprises the magnificent mausoleum of Hazrat Kaka Sahib and graves of host of his family members, tombs of his staunch disciples, a spacious mosque, Langar Khana, library and a few family quarters for night stay of guest visitors.
He had earned the title of Rahmkaar – ‘the kindest’ who used to free slaves and show mercy on orphans, poor and destitute families.
Nowshera Dam and beautiful Kund Park are also located in the district. A large number of picnickers from across the Peshawar Valley and elsewhere throw their daily chores behind and visit both the places to enjoy the day-long trips.
