Beautiful and Amazing pakistan

The Pakistan Monument was inaugurated in Islamabad on 23 March 2007 as a national monument embodying the country’s history. For its design architect Arif Masood drew inspiration from the figure of a blossoming flower to represent the four provinces and three territories into which Pakistan is subdivided. The structure consists of four bigger petals alternated with three smaller ones . built in granite and decorated with murals on the inner sides. Seen from above, the monument meaningfully recalls the five-pointed star on Pakistan’s national flag. Below the petals  a metallic crescent is found, which is inscribed with verses by Pakistan’s founder Muhammad Ali Jinnah poet Muhammad Iqbal.
