Kandiaro

Kandiaro (Urdu: كنڈيارو, Sindhi: ڪنڊيارو) is a town in the Naushahro Feroze District of Sindh province of Pakistan and the headquarters of Kandiaro Taluka.

It is famous for Dargah Allahabad Jalsa[further explanation needed].

The town is situated on the earthen heap or Darro, to safeguard the town from the waters of Indus (Mehran River passing north-west) and Nasrat Wah (Sada Wah, the then inundation canal, now Bhaddo).

According to tradition, Kandiaro was founded during the reign of the Mughal emperor Jahangir, after a nearby town called Patoipur was hit by a flood.

Kandiaro was then built on higher ground, to protect against flooding, and its name came from the many kandi trees growing on the site.
