Although winter seems far, it won’t be long before it arrives with a few tourists who make their way into the coastal city of Karachi. For the Karachi tourist this piece follows an entire guide of how to keep yourself entertained with the essence of the city of lights. Keeping in mind the safety measures are of equal importance.
Starting off with the most important task of tantalising your taste buds with the true flavours of foodie galore that come as a bonus in this city. If you’re looking for options that are on the fancier side Xanders located on E street should be your call. With a division of three branches, breakfast, lunch and dinner all served up on demand xanders has been a karachite favourite. Looking for Pan Asian options, then we would rush to Cocochan for the category and one underrated hidden gem is Firefly Pan Asian located in phase 6 (a budget catering and equally delicious quality food option). Remember to not miss out on a feast at do Dariya with the seagulls and the sea as your view. The reflecting lights over the sea are a view to catch!
However if you seem to be more adventurous and budget friendly the ever so abuzz sector of burns road cannot be missed out on from Waheed’s fry kebabs to Dehli’s Dilpasand Dahi Baray! The streets at burns road are always full of food lovers, many uprising food business carts and of course sellers who would love for you to purchase their little lightened up balloons.
The omni carting circuit, located inside airman golf club allows for a thrilling carting experience and is one of the best group experiences. Speaking of group experiences Bharia town’s amusement park outside the city is a fun getaway. A more inner city experience can be at bounce Karachi full of trampolines. Yet another memorable day can be spent at PAF Museum’s winter wonderland with the chills on point for the true winter feels below -10 degrees, sweet rides, hot cocoa and even a cafeteria!
The coast of Karachi in the more public area may have not remained the same as before but our beaches that call for a longer drive inwards to the city and open up on shore will never fail to amaze. A hidden gem is Nathia Gali beach and of course the rest of French beach, sandspit and turtle beach remain as frequent destinations for picnics.
Happy Visiting!
