    The median-strip gardens along
    Constitution Avenue
    by lachydragon
    I was very impressed by the lovely gardens around the city. I didn't even visit the recognised established garden such as the 'Rose and Jasmine Garden' across the road from my hotel, but just walking around the city there were lovely parks and gardens.

    Particularly nice were the gardens along Constitution Avenue where all the diplomatic missions, the presidency and parliament are located. Considering I was travelling in the middle of Summer and the weather was always dry they were really impressive!

    When we went up to the lookout of Daman-e-koh in the hills behind Islamabad the view over the city showed just how green a city it is - I guess because it is a relatively new and planned city there has been provision for gardens, which tend to get overlooked with the ad-hoc development of cities generally!

    Greenary and Gardens: Day Walks

  • I found that Islamabad didnt have a lot to offer so I instantly tried to find things to do. I dont like dismissing places after a few days and I like to seek out the good points in a city or country before passing judgement. Islamabad didnt intially impress me but after a few days I realized that walking around in the diplomatic quarter through the gardens etc near the Shah Faisal Mosque was an excellent option to get away from the buzz of Rawalpindi or Central Islamabad. I loved the slow paced walks and I recommend it strongly. Beautiful.

    The rose and jasmine gardens, near Jinnah stadium, are quite nice and expansive. It was the dry season when I went in June, but the roses were still in bloom. The jasmine, less so. Not too far away is the Rose society for Islamabad and there you can find all kinds of rose species.
