Situated just west of North Karachi town,  Manghopir is home to the shrine of  Sufi Pir Haji Syed Sakhi Sultan, a saint with no less than four different legends attributing to his mysterious origins. Even more baffling is the pond adjacent to the shrine inhabited by at least a hundred docile crocodiles revered by the local townsfolk.  — Photos by Hussain Afzal
