For me, this year around, spring was special because I got the chance to visit my home city of Islamabad in the holidays. I planned my trip at this time because it’s too cold in the winter and the summer is even more unbearable with the frequent power shut downs. Spring is the perfect time to visit and Islamabad looked absolutely beautiful. I got the chance to visit my favorite place in the city. It’s a restaurant up in the hills that overlooks the city. The drive till there is breathtaking and the food at the restaurant isn’t bad either. I got a shot of the dwindling light of early evening as the restaurant prepared to serve dinner.

What a view! open space and the sunlight..ah…I can see weddings happening here too 🙂
The drive up there is as good as the view. The best part is that this place is just 20 min away from the main city. Islamabad is located at the foothills of the Margalla Hills and this restaurant is up in the hills. People also hike all the way there.
wow so I can walk up to the restaurant in hiking gear? 🙂
Yes why not, there’s no dress code 🙂
I like that! 🙂
Beautiful shot.
Thanks Cee!
Beautiful!
It really is!
The view is really awesome…
Yes it is, it has such a soothing effect.
That looks like a lovely place to eat, drink and relax, Zainab.

It really is! It’s my favorite place in Islamabad and it’s so peaceful to sit there, feel the breeze on your face and gaze at the city spread out before you.
I would just love to be seated at a table along the railing, wow, what a view!
Yes it’s so peaceful and beautiful. Thanks.
