KARACHI: President Asif Ali Zardari stressed on Monday the need for preserving the cultural heritage of the country.

Laying the foundation stone of the Mohatta Palace Museum and Cultural Complex, the president expressed the hope that the initiative would enable future generations to derive cultural benefits from the museum enclave.

The complex will house five large museums aligned across a central garden quadrangle. Several adjacent properties will be acquired and amalgamated into the cultural complex containing archives and libraries, cultural centres and venues of performing arts. More >
