A major attraction being the largest mosque built with support from Saudi Arabia is an excellent building with a unique Tent structure. The main hall is huge without any obstructive pillars. Its architecture is unique and is a major departure from the regular mosques (Masjids) which feature domes. The Crescent that adorns the centre of the roof is made of gold.

Margalla hills are part of the Himalayas (its extension) and surround Islamabad. They are lush green and rocky with springs here and there. You can visit the hills in a car and also visit the various trails for hiking. There are 6 hiking trails, the most commonly visited are trail 1, 3 and 5. Trail 1 is the easiest and only takes 45-50 minutes climb to Daman e Koh. Trail 3 is steep and takes 3 hours of strenuous hike to top at Monal restaurant. Trail 5 is 5 kms and first 2 -3 kms are easy while the 2 kms is the steepest and require quite an effort to climb. It takes around 3 hours of strenuous hike to reach the top so take water along with you. This trail is criss crossed by water streams and springs. The views from above are breath taking and refreshing. It’s better to go for hiking on any of these trails early in the morning or late afternoon. And don’t forget a sun cap and good quality hiking shoes or joggers.

This was the place not to be missed as the water was so pleasing and the weather was awsome. Overall cleanliness was not that impressive. You hve to sit in the water on chairs and local Beds (Charpai), kept in water. Water was so cold. Summer is the best time to visit. Some pakora and tea shops to offer some good tea. Take open shoes like slippers and extra clothes for children along with your own snacks. Mostly full on weekends while weekdays are good if you want to feel the calmness. Family is safe there, some singles guys also take bath in the water but family sitting area is usually not disturbed. Must visit for all locals and those coming to see Islamabad and neaeby places.

A proud Quaidian since 1973. An Institutionen which is recognized and respected worldwide. Went for my Ph.D in Europe and had no problems with recognition of my Master‘s degree from QAU (in those days called Islamabad University). Beautiful design, wonderful staff and breathtaking scenery. Attached is a photo taken in 1975. Beautiful memories of my student life with some of the finest co-students, great professors and one of the best Vice Chancellor- Ms Kaneez Fatima Yousef. Thanks to QAU, had a fulfilling and rewarding international career. You have a special place in my heart-my alma mater!
