On Saturday, the whole team from the IWMI office here went on a trip to Sheikhupura.
Actually, we did not go to the city (which is extremly busy with lots of people on the streets and roads blocked by traffic) but to the nearby park, Hiran Minar. There, Mughal emperor Jehangir built an estate with an artificial lake and some nice buildings including one grave for his favourite deer (!).
From left to right: Shumaila, Qaiser, Yusuf, Waqas, myself, Rashid and Sadia (Shaukat, who was also with us, is not on the picture)
We had a stroll around the lake
and I enjoyed the nearby forrest, the first I've seen in a long time.
After a picnic close to a busy children's playground
we rounded off the afternoon with a little tour in a rowing boat.
It was a really nice day.
