Irrigation Rest House, Uman Chodagi, Khairpur

Help Us to find its location on the map.

An old rest house presumably of Irrigation Department lying abandoned at Uman Chodagi near Nawabshah-Khum by pass. It has been lying unused since several decades, consequently its major portion has been destroyed while the rest of the parts are waiting for their unpleasant end. Surrounded by lush green lands and mango orchards, the rest house spreads over two acres of land and a much-ignored public property and local people use it as a public toilet. Although the building does not contain any mark of its date of construction however, it can rightly presumed to be of late 1920s. [Source: Khairpur Jewel & Crown of Sindh by Momin Bullo]
