Last crawled date: 2 years, 11 months ago

Frere Hall is one of the few well-preserved buildings from the days of the British Raj that still exists in Karachi, Pakistan.It was built in honour of Sir Henry Bartle Edward Frere (1815-1884), who was known for promoting economic development in Karachi. Situated almost in the centre of Karachi, across the street from the Marriott Hotel and the US Consulate, and adjacent to the Sind Club, the building itself forms the centrepiece of a park known as Bagh-e-Jinnah (Jinnah Gardens).Due to security concerns, as well as the insistence of the US Consulate, which faces Frere Hall, the park has largely been declared off-limits to the general public #anique #British #England #English #Era #Frere #Hall #Karachi #Pakistan #Raj #Sindh
