Nice pictures humsafer, can we find out the source as these pics are really nice. Also, even I have born and lived in Karachi for a long time I still don't know where is Elphinstone Street - a name quite common here in Scotland. Can anybody help?
Yar Khan Sahib, the new name of Elphinstone Street is Zubunissa Street. That the street where they all the shops in Sadar Baazar are, new name of Borree Baazar. Borree Bazar was burnt once and they re build the whole bazar with new name.
thanx johnd, btw, do you know who was it named after?
