Faiz Mahal is in Khairpur. It was built by the Talpurs in 1798. This splendid palace is surrounded by vast gardens. Faiz Mahal is well maintained and has retained most of its grandeur.

Sukkur Barrage is a barrage on the River Indus near the city of Sukkur in the Sindh province ofPakistan.

Sukkur Barrage is used to control water flow in the River Indus for irrigation and flood control purposes.

Sukkur Barrage was built during the British Raj from 1923 to 1932 and named Lloyd Barrage.

The barrage enables water to flow through what was originally a network of canals 6,166 miles (9,923 km) long, feeding the largest irrigation system in the world, with more than 5 million acres (20,000 km²) of irrigated land.

The retaining wall has 66 spans each 60 feet (18 m) wide. Each span has a gate weighing 50 tons.
