Islamabad

About Islamabad

Islamabad is the capital of Pakistan, situated at the foot of the Margalla Hills in the country's north. Planned from scratch in the 1960s on a structured grid layout, it is widely regarded as one of Asia's most deliberately designed capital cities. With a population of roughly one million, it has a notably green and orderly character compared to Pakistan's larger urban centres. Visitors can enjoy the panoramic viewpoint at Daman-e-Koh, the Children Park, the bustling Aabpara Chowk area, and local places of worship such as Bilal Masjid.
