The climate is arid and desert-like, the average annual rainfall being only 4 inches (100mm). It is extremely hot in summer and quite cold in winter. To the south side is the great Indus River.

The cultivation of crops such as wheat, sugarcane, cotton and rice is enabled through irrigation from the canals from the Indus.
