AP —Stained glass windows, a sweeping staircase and embellished interiors make Mohatta Palace a gem in Karachi, a Pakistani megacity of 20 million people.
The palace sits on prime real estate in the desirable neighborhood of Old Clifton, among mansions, businesses and upmarket restaurants.
The land under buildings like the Mohatta Palace is widely coveted, said palace lawyer Faisal Siddiqi.
Mohatta Palace is a symbol of that diversity.
“I’m from Bahawalpur (in Punjab, India) where we have the Noor Mahal palace, so I wanted to look at this one.
