Karachi Park Timings

I like visiting Parks and other recreational areas, however, it is hard to find the timings of several parks in Karachi on the web. For this purpose, I am putting up this post that maybe the readers can post comments about the Parks they have visited and know the timing of so that others like me can benefit from it.

Some of the places that I have in mind are as follows:
Beach Park (Opens @ Closes @ Midnight)
Askari Park (Opens @ Closes @ 11 pm)
Safari Park
PAF Museum
Naval Museum (Karsaz)
Zamzama Park
Mohata Palace

Feel free to add to this list. If I get significant input, I will make sure to post an updated entry.

    not sure where to post this, but thought karachi metbloggers might be interested … your blog was recommended by the The Times, UK, for info on karachi.

    Sorry, I’ve been rather old-fashioned of late and saw it in a hardcopy of The Times.

    Here are the details:

    Bottom of page 2 in a little blurb called ‘The Click’

    Pakistan is one of the few non-European nations that regularly impinges on our consciousness because of factors such as the country’s allliance with the West in countering terrorism, immigration to the United Kingdrom and, naturally, cricket. One of the best collective news blogs, karachi.metblogs.com offers updated news and links on what is happening in that country.

    FYI The Times has the second-largest daily circulation of the big 4 ‘serious’ national newspapers out here.
