Aiwan-e-Sadr, Presidential residence in Islamabad, Pakistan
The Aiwan-e-Sadr stands on Constitution Avenue, featuring four main halls named after Pakistan's founding fathers and gardens inspired by Mughal design.
Construction of the presidential palace began in 1970, taking 11 years to complete, with President Ghulam Ishaq Khan becoming its first resident in 1988.
The building incorporates modern step pyramid architecture while maintaining traditional Pakistani design elements through its Mughal-inspired gardens and ceremonial spaces.
The presidential complex includes staff residences, stables for horses, and a small zoo housing native species like chinkara, deer, and various birds.
In 2022, Aiwan-e-Sadr became the first presidential building globally to receive ISO 50001 certification for its complete transition to renewable energy.
