Introducing Channan Pir
The sleepy village of Channan Pir is about 65km south of Bahawalpur, on the edge of the desert. Every year around February/March it swells with Cholistanis arriving by camel from surrounding settlements for the Channan Mela. This festival runs over seven consecutive Thursdays and Fridays (the fifth and sixth days have special attractions such as sporting events and theatrical performances), peaking during the full moon. Dates are variable – consult the PTDC in Bahawalpur.
