Dear Readers,
While All Things Pakistan has remained alive and online, it has been dormant since June 11, 2011 - when, on the blog's 5th anniversary, we decided that it was time to move on. We have been heartened by your messages and the fact that a steady traffic has continued to enjoy the archived content on ATP. While the blog itself will remain dormant, we are now beginning to add occasional (but infrequent) new material by the original authors of the blog, mostly to archive what they may now publish elsewhere. We will also be updating older posts to make sure that new readers who stumble onto this site still find it useful.
We hope you will continue to find ATP a useful venue to reflect upon and express your Pakistaniat. - Editors

Just finished reading ‘Captive Princess’ and was instantly floored ! Strangely, Zebunnissa’s fate keeps hitting you back again and again. You keep wondering how come a life so regal, enlightened and majestic can be left to wither away so callously at the hands of some one who would be expected to afford best protection for it!
Indeed, we all need to remain in perpetual awe for Almighty’s designs for us and never let our individual egos get the better of us. Whenever veering around, just think about Zeb’s life and get back to the right path. Perhaps then only her wandering soul might get some peace!
Salimgurh’s visit near Red Fort is next in the diary but don’t know when can I visit her Chouburgi’s remnants. I have turned her fan now and pray that her soul rest in peace for ever!
THe tomb of the princess Zeb un Nissa is there near Saman Abad Chowk,Lahore, along the main road, a desolated and deserted place. There is a controversy as for the built of the Chahar Burj Garden by Zeb un NIssa or someone else; but i am of the view that the garden was built by Zeb un NIssa definitely.
Well, the princess is lying peacefully; come to pray for her !
