Last night, We (my mum, brother and sister and me) went all the way to see the fawwara (fountain)... the one which i presume to be the same as the one in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Well.. venturing through the streets and main roads of this marvellous city, you come across a whole variety of buildings.. u go passing houses then flats, even Wedding lawns, over the flyovers.. passing Jahangir Road to main Saddar...
Now, Saddar is one place where you find the markings of colonialism in Karachi. The Municipal Building, State Bank of Paksitan.. to the famous Tower and Port Qasim Trust.. there are soo many which are centuries old for example St. Joseph School and College, Frere Hall, Hindu Gymkhana.. etc etc.. anyway, so while roaming around Saddar, you'll see these amazing old colonial-style-built buildings.. which are covered with carbon(the pollution mainly) and still holds a remarkable beauty in them... anyway, moving ahead towards I.I.Chundrigar Road, you'll experience the modern architecture.. with Habib Bank Plaza, Al-Falah Bank and not to forget MCB Tower(tallest building in Pakistan).. and PSO building.. which indeed is remarkable!
Anyway, from the uneven broken roads to mouth watering smooth roads and from the highway to the streets.. Karachi city is what we need!!! With all it's eccentricities and everything.. it's the dearest to those who live here.. Karachi!!! you rock!!!
