It has some of Pakistan's best sights, including the Tomb of Emperor Jahangir (with its beautiful surrounding gardens), the narrow streets of the Old Town, the Bara Dari Pavilion, the Shish Mahal (Palace of Mirrors) and the Lahore Fort (where a sound-and-light show is held several times a week).

Among Karachi's sights are the Bohri Bazaar and the Jodia Bazaar, the white marble Quaid-e-Azam Mohammed Ali Jinnah Mausoleum and Garden (honoring the Father of Pakistan), an aquarium and the Dhobi Ghat, where laundrymen boil clothes and then whip the dirt out of them on rocks.

 LAHORE
Lahore is one of the Pakistan's most interesting city, the cultural, intellectual and artistic center of the nation.
Being the center of cultural and literary activities it may rightly be called the cultural capital of Pakistan.
Its faded elegance, busy streets and bazaars, and wide variety of Islamic and British architecture make it a city full of atmosphere, contrast and surprise.

LAHORE: On the direction of the Lahore district government, the Muttahida Majlis-e-Amal (MMA) has announced that its public meeting on December 12 would be held at Minar-e-Pakistan instead of The Mall.
He said that only the joint opposition could make demands to dissolve assemblies and hold new elections, but such demands by Asif Ali Zardari and other Pakistan People’s Party Parliamentarians (PPPP) leaders were merely individual opinions and carried no weight.
Asked about the next round of talks between Pakistan and India scheduled for the end of this month, Mr Hassan suggested that both countries should announce that they would resolve the Kashmir issue as per the wishes of its people.

 Review On Pakistan - General by mouthshutdotcom -- MouthShut.com
Pakistan...an Agricultural country or Industrial?:Pakistan,is basically an agricultural country and it grows a lot of Cotton.Cotton is then exported to receive foreign currency.There is not much Oil in Pakistan and so it has to be imported.If Pakistan would have been rich of oil,it could have saved money to establish more institutions or hospitals.
On the whole,Pakistan is a country worth visiting once.If you want to visit the place.I would recommend you to stay for 7 days.You would really enjoy your visit to PAKISTAN.

In 1972 designs were called for rebuilding the Shaheed Minar (which was destroyed on the night of March 27, 1971 by the Pakistan Army) A competition was held and many people submitted their designs from amongst which Hamidur Rahman’s layout was selected once again.
As an avant garde artist she wanted to add a new dimension to the landscape of Shaheed Minar using the flow of water as a complement to the graceful moving shadows on the marble platform.
She is said to have claimed that the actual design of the Minar was hers, and that it was in collaboration with the artist Hamidur Rahman that she came up with the final piece.
