I am very fond of knowing history as when visiting such places there are boards and various information to increase knowledge .When I go to such ancient places, I get a lot of information about the skill of the people of that time, the beautiful carvings on the walls and the beautiful tiles used.

How much does it cost, tickets or anything to visit the place.

As i live in Sargodha, Katas Raj is located near Chakwal .From here when we go to our car, Chakwal is reached after two and a half hours journey from here and Katas Raj is also located near it.All we need to get from here to that place is the fare.
