Magnificent walls and windows made of wood carved beautifully on their frames, a wonderful historical place in Karachi, the "Mohatta Palace" also known as the "Taj Mahal of Karachi"


Mohatta Palace



It is one of the best places where your kids can learn about the history





Shivratan Chandraratan Mohatta was the owner of this palace. At the independence of Pakistan, they (the Mohatta family) moved to Islamabad. Mohtarma Fatima Jinnah (sister of Quaid Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah, the founder of Pakistan) lived in this building until she died in 1967. Then her sister moved to this place and lived in the Mohatta Palace until she died in 1980.

On Sunday afternoon, my uncle Dr. Samiullah drove us to visit this place. And we enjoyed it a lot.


Beautiful Stuff My Uncle Bought for Me


I was unable to take photos from inside because phones were not allowed.




I witnessed women's ancient embroidered clothes, the old currency of Pakistan, beautiful paintings, and an ancient statue of Buddha. It was a wonderful trip.

A VISIT TO SCIENCE CENTER

A Visit To Science Center   My Mamo (my mother's elder brother) took all of us, including my cousins, to the TDF MagnifiScience Center in Karachi. I had never visited a place like this before, and it's a wonderland of science! The experience was, needless to say, amazing. Remember the Titan, the submersible that imploded during an expedition to view the Titanic wreck on June 18, 2023, in the North Atlantic Ocean off Newfoundland, Canada? The founder of TDF, The Dawood Foundation, Ahmed Dawood's grandson Shahzada Dawood, and his son Suleman were unfortunately part of the group that went in it. The MagnifiScience Center is part of their foundation. Shehzada Dawood with his son Suleman. First, we entered the mirror maze, and it felt like we were in infinite space. Wherever we looked, it seemed like the same long tunnel, but as we moved forward, we hit the mirror wall - an illusion created through mirrors. There were no long tunnels, just an illusion.   Our Gang In the Maze

To Choose Or What To Choose That Is The Problem H ello, I’m Amber, a bright and determined 13-year-old. Unlike most kids my age, I’m not content with the ordinary. At this age, I already run two YouTube channels, write blogs, and I’m inspired by Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, and Arfa Karim, the youngest Microsoft Certified Professional from Pakistan. I want to make a dent in the universe like Steve Jobs did, as he said to poke at something to see what comes out. This is what I aim to do, and I believe computers are the way to follow. But here’s the problem: as I approach standard 9, I have to choose between Computer Sciences and Biology. Naturally, I would love to choose computers, but there’s a slight problem. The computer lab at school does have computers, but they’re running Windows 7—an outdated operating system. It’s hard to learn modern programs and new skills on such old technology. Another issue is the lack of internet access. After thinking about all this, I asked for advice from my

  Daughter of the Soil Fighter Pilot Marium Mukhtiar 1992-2015 W hat would you do if you had only one choice, To save your life or the lives of others? It is natural to get in the safety zone and save yourself first that's our first instinct as humans but for a well-trained officer, the situation demands a different equation. For Marium Mukhtair the safety of her people comes first that's what she was trained for. In seconds she decided to take the fallen (FT-7PG) plane away from the populace area.   The gravitational force tore the plane into pieces, Just seconds before hitting the ground Marium managed to eject, but these few seconds of delay proved fatal, She could not survive and took her final breaths in hospital, Her soul parted from her body and flown away to eternal life. Marium was among the first batch of female fighter pilots in the Pakistan Air Force, she was the daughter of former Colonel in the Army Ahmed Mukhtiar , She Insisted to her father that she wante
