Faisalabad (Urdu: فیصل آباد; English: /fɑːɪsɑːlˌbɑːd/; Lyallpur until 1979) is the third-most-populous city in Pakistan, and the second-largest in the eastern province of Punjab. Historically one of the first planned cities within British India, it has long since developed into a cosmopolitan metropolis. Faisalabad was restructured into city district status; a devolution promulgated by the 2001 local government ordinance (LGO). The total area of Faisalabad District is 5,856 km (2,261 sq mi) while the area controlled by the Faisalabad Development Authority (FDA) is 1,280 km (490 sq mi). Faisalabad has grown to become a major industrial and distribution centre because of its central location in the region and connecting roads, rails, and air transportation. It has been referred to as the "Manchester of Pakistan". Faisalabad contributes over 20 percent of Punjab's GDP, and has an average annual GDP of $20.5 billion. Agriculture and industry remain its hallmark.

There are many clock towers in Pakistan, almost every major city has one but the one here in Faisalabad has to be the best one as it stands perfectly in a buzzing center of a huge town and is surrounded by a lot of dinning options. It is definitely a place to go after 10:00 Pm to avoid unnecessary crowd.
