Quaid-e-Azam House, National museum in Karachi, Pakistan.
Quaid-e-Azam House is a museum set within a colonial-era building made of golden sandstone in Karachi. The grounds include gardens and open spaces that surround the main residence.
The building was designed in 1886 for British military use and later became a private residence. It transformed into a museum to preserve the memory of the nation's founder and his connection to the country.
The residence displays personal objects and mementos that tell the story of Muhammad Ali Jinnah's life and work. Visitors can see how he lived and observe spaces that reflect his role as the nation's founder.
The museum is open from Thursday through Tuesday in a central location near a major intersection. Visitors should allow time to walk through the rooms and gardens, as the grounds have considerable space.
The house was originally built as quarters for military officers and retains features from that era. These layers of past use remain visible throughout the building when you walk through it.
