Akin to a rainbow comprising of various different colors, which adds to its beauty, the richness of a society is made up of various cultures and ethnicities co-existing in it and complementing to its vibrancy. Exploring this vibrant landscape, the rich diversity and the spirit of inclusiveness in various localities in Karachi, I had accompanied Team Tour De' Pakistan along with Super Savari Express on one of their photowalk tours revolving around the theme of "Co-existence."
Our first stop was Memon Masjid where the beautiful minarets and domes displaying the perfect symmetry captivated our interest and we continued to click until we were called to hop on board for the next destination, which was Karachi Parsi Institute.
This was my second trip to the historic place; however, I made sure to eat less nashta and explore more on this trip while capturing more pictures this time around. What was worth noticing at KPI included the statues of Edulji Dinshaw and Nadirshaw Edulji Dinshaw standing tall in the ground reminding us of the forgotten heroes.
We were headed to Gurdwara and Mandir next, finding ourselves in a state of piqued curiosity for there was a lot to be seen and observed. Luckily, we also ended up as "Begaani Shaadi Mein Abdullah Deewana" at a wedding ritual taking place at the venue.
The itinerary concluded with a trip to the Holy Trinity Cathedral where its wonderful architecture and glass paintings left us in awe and wonder. The collaborative photowalk between Tour De Pakistan and Super Savari Express turned out to be an amazing experience where I learnt about how the rituals and beliefs may differ from one religion to another but there's an invisible thread of faith which is what connects us together, making us a human family.
