Pakistan's largest city, Karachi, is a multicultural metropolis that has been experiencing a rapid growth spurt for decades. This population growth has been the cause of incredible development in homes, high-rises, hotels and shopping centers. Karachi has an overwhelming range of restaurants and cafes to choose from. It even has its own film festival, the Karachi International Film Festival, the only competitive film festival in all of Pakistan.
Karachi, a colorful city blending the old and new elements of Pakistan, has plenty of its own art and attractions. Its beaches offer opportunities for lounging, boating and fishing. The city's mosques and churches are an interesting mix of architectural styles. And its markets and bazaars selling rugs, fine garments and other goods, particularly in Saddar, the city's center, are a great chance to get a feel for the country's unique and kaleidoscopic sights, sounds and flavors.
