CULTURAL CONSERVATION

Cultural Conservation

The vernacular landscape of the study area, especially Bani Malik's, is an outstanding representation of the local people's attitude towards resource use as they literally shaped the landscape. The montane terraces and farmlands, the abandoned village of Widd and the trail leading to it as a perfect example of just that, and are indeed worthy of conservation!

The third suitability is to manage the urban growth in the study area, as civilization is and will constantly approach the pristine nature if management has not been made. The following suitability analysis is to locate the most suitable land for any future permanent development to be made.
