I am not worried that Makran is on fire. But I feel distress when I think, there is no one who can vanish this fire.

Princess of Hope Sights/Landmarks Princess of Hope is a natural rock formation that manifests a princess looking beyond horizons (maybe for hope). The sea breeze coming from the Arabian Sea has worked for many years an expert craftsman to carve this beautiful sculpture.

Climatic changes, rain and strong winds coming from the sea have transformed these rocks into nicely sculpted objects – the Princess of Hope is just one of them. The formation of Princess of Hope is so perfect that it appears to be a masterpiece of a skilled artisan who has made no mistake in transforming this rock into a princess. The name Princess of Hope was given by Hollywood actress Angelina Jolie on her visit to this area.

Just traveling about 20 mins from Kund Malir you see a very finely carved structure of sphinx waiting for your sight on the top of a mountain
