karachi to delhi (a journey through sub-continent)
The land of Mughals has witnessed the rise and downfall of reigns in its heart. The undivided sub-continent had sheltered some of the oldest human settlements, which include developed Indus Valley and Gandhara civilizations. Both Pakistan and India continue to attract historians, archaeologists, and pilgrims. Mughals, Aryans, Greeks, White Huns, Arabs, and British, which are reflected in the form of forts, monasteries, mosques, churches and roads, have invaded the land. However, the Mughals and British were very recent to Raj the Indo Sub-continent. Taj Mehal, Red Forts in India and Sheesh Mehal, Shalimar Gardens, Badshahi and Wazir Khan Mosques in Pakistan are some of the marvelous souvenirs of Mughals.
