Deosai plains are located in northern Pakistan. They are the second highest plains of the world, with an elevation of 4114 meters , the highest are in Mongolia. Deosai is home to hundreds of different plants. It is also home to plenty of animals, and special ones too.
Deosai got the name "The Land of Giants" by the presence of the brown Himalayan bear. It is an endangered specie in the region. Unfortunately I was unable to capture one with my camera because of my short stay. Visitors like snow leopard have also been spotted in Deosai.
This is the entrance of Deosai plains. One has to cross the Astore valley first to reach Deosai.
Following are some special features of Deosai:
**Nanga Parbat** You can see the majestic and mighty Nanga Parbat from the Deosai plains. Nanga Parbat or "The Killer Mountain" is the 9th highest mountain of the world. The beast got its name due to its harsh conditions and death rate.

**Barapni ** Barapni is a fresh water stream that comes from the mountains. The water is pure and drinkable.

**Siachen** Siachen is a disputed territory in the Karakoram range. It stays snow-capped throughout the year. The average elevation is 5400m. The snowcapped mountains in photo below are of Siachen.
**Sheosar Lake** Sheosar lake is my favorite place in Deosai. Your mood starts to lighten up when you first see this lake. This is one of the highest lakes in Pakistan. The water in the lake is so cold that you cannot stand for even a minute. Sheosar is home to trout fish. So take your fishing rods with you if you plan on going to Deosai.

**Hotels in Deosai** There are no hotels in Deosai. Actually there's nothing artificial in Deosai, almost! So if you're interested in spending the night there, take your camping tents with you. So I encourage everyone to visit this unbelievable place. This must be on your bucket list.
Every photo is taken by me.
