Pictures from an evening at one of Islamabad’s relatively new landmarks, the Pakistan Monument. The drive to this place was beautiful and so were the views of the city once you get here. Also visited the adjacent Pakistan Monument Museum, a great place for history lovers with beautifully vivid displays on the creation of Pakistan and accounts of national heroes and historical events. It is also Islamabad’s version of the Madame Tussauds with life size figures of Jinnah, Fatima Jinnah, Iqbal and many others. We weren’t able to see one but have heard good things about the multimedia exhibits that take place in the museum too. Truly a great addition to Islamabad’s places to visit.
