Ocean Mall Karachi Karachi is the biggest cosmopolitan city of Pakistan and hub of financial activities in country. People from all over the Pakistan come here for work as well as to meet their families and friends. They usually prefer to visit coastal line of city and enjoy the beautiful sea sides. Also they love to visit and spend time in different malls of City. Karachi has several big and beautiful malls and among them one is "The Ocean Mall" which is in the coastal area names "Clifton". Emerald Tower Ocean mall is like a jewel in urban jungle. It is a five store building with different brands outlets. Prices are reasonable. Food court on forth floor wide variety of food.  I highly recommend a restaurant Ban thai which offer Thai and Chinese cuisine. Environment is awesome. On top floor kids can enjoy rides and play games. Ocean mall is a place worth seeing.   Ocean Mall Food Court

Villages of Karachi- Haji Shah Ali Village Karachi is generally considered to be a Metropolitan city and among the top of urban lifestyles in Pakistan. It is a general perception that there is no village life left inside or nearby Karachi and all the old villages have been cultivated into the urbanization spring, whether converted into housing colonies or into industrial complexes.

We were unaware like a strange explorer where we are heading to, in this Grand and old bazaar. As we were about to explore one of a hidden specialty of  Kashmir,  an unknown delicacy for us. Kids were hungry and we had a long journey ahead, we were searching for something to eat. As we entered in old market and narrow streets we saw a number of shops where people were selling very beautiful looking and colored biscuits.  But they were not normal bakery biscuits, something was different.
