Karachi, the backbone of Pakistan, is the 7th most populous and largest metropolitan cities in the world. Even though the city has glorified in all its beauty and charm over the years, the old Karachi was truly worth admiring. Away from all the hustle bustle of the busy town during the day and an even busier nightlife, resided a peaceful, serene and a very calm Karachi, reminisced by many, even today!
The time period between the 30’s till the 70’s can fittingly be termed as the ‘Golden Era’ of Karachi. The city was truly a sight to see! It exuded a beautiful blend of rich architectural heritage and culture that could not have been ignored by any eye that was set upon it.
