No, I took it from some blog but I have my own too. I will post them after resizing them as they are really large, but wait till you see the ones I took of Faisal Mosque during sunset. Faisal mosque imo is the best mosque in terms of architectural beauty and awe.
Sight Seeing - Margalla Hills, Pir Sohawa, Faisal Mosque, capital buildings (parliament, supreme court, presidents house etc, pakistan monument constitution avenue), Rawal Dam, lots of places nearby in the outskirts… Taxila, Murree, Khanpur etc
Recreational - hiking, water sports at rawal, kabaddi at jinnah stadium (i bet you wont enjoy that anywhere else j/k), not to mention alot of places to enjoy good meals.
shopping - jinnah super market, super market, covered market, aabpara but prices are higher compared to the twin city of Rawalpindi. Lots of nice boutiques near the supermarket area.

E-11, interesting... We own property there, beautiful sector, and unlike those D-20, F-20 sectors its in the heart of the city. Its expensive now though, prices shot up as soon as development and house building started.

Which school? The ISoS students used to have some excellent plays back in the day. I remember watching the King and I.
