This market never fails to impress! I always end up buying something, be it my own clothing, or my daughter's or for a friend, Over the years, the market has expanded with more shops, adjacent buildings turning to the ready-made garments of export quality. My sister-in-law from US bought a horde of things, giveaways on her recent trip. She had visited the place 10 tears as well. So it continues to thrive.

Reviewed By waqarc2014
This is a visually stunning mosque from the outside and the inside. Its simple almost flat dome structure is very non typical of mosques but this is really where this sets itself apart from the others. Look into the history and how it was built, very good collaboration with the Turks and the Pakistanis. One thing you'll note inside is the vastness of space, the thousands of small holes (you'll know what I mean once you've seen it) and different galaxy type effects on its ceiling. You'll also notice that there are no beams anywhere and this is where the magic of this design comes from. A must see, not far from Defence
