Dadu District (Sindhi: ضلعو دادو), (Urdu: ضلع دادو) is a district of Sindh Province, Pakistan. With headquarters the city of Dadu, the district was created in 1931[2][3] by merging Kotri and Mahal Kohistan (later Jamshoro) tehsils from Karachi District and Mehar, Khairpur Nathan Shah, Dadu, Johi and Sehwan tehsils from Larkana District.[4] In 2004, several talukas in the south were split off to create the new Jamshoro District.[5] Its boundary touches with four districts of Sindh i.e. Jamshoro, Naushahro Feroze, Shaheed Benazirabad and Kamber Shahdadkot.[6]
The main languages spoken in Dadu are Sindhi, Balochi and Urdu. Some of the popular tourist attractions in the district include the Gorakh Hill and Manchar Lake.
