Gwadar District facts for kids
Gwadar is an important district in Pakistan. It became a district on July 1, 1977. This happened when the larger area called Makran Division was formed and split into three smaller districts. Gwadar city is the main town, or "headquarters," of Gwadar District. Before it became a district, Gwadar was one of three smaller areas called tehsils within what was then Makran District.
Gwadar District is very important because it has a long coastline of about 600 kilometers (370 miles). It also includes dry areas like the Kulanch and Dasht valleys. These features have always made Gwadar a key part of the history of the Makran region.
