HOME                                 Karachi, Pakistan, in December 2003

A few pictures of Karachi are included here.

The roundabout at the Tariq Road-Sharah Quaideen intersection. It now sports a trendy Allah sculpture.

Armoured vehicle across the road from the U.S. consulate, and a modern hotel. It was here that a car bomb exploded a few years ago, killing some 20 French engineers.

The beach at Clifton, across from Seaview complex. It has been nicely maintained with lights at night, benches and roadside food stalls.

The Mohatta Palace at Clifton. The ruined building, formerly owned by Jinnah's sister, has been renovated and turned into a museum.
