Pictorial Memories from Karachi



Here is a collection of pictures of my home town, Karachi. These pictures were taken by "Yours Truly" before leaving the country in 1987. I am sure there must have been many changes in the past ten years but I have not been back so I don't know much. All of these pictures are excellent but some of them are just gorgeous. In any case, I have plenty of other pictures that I am planning on adding to this site provided I have time, space and above all, money. So stay tuned and enjoy these pictures.
