Multan is known as the 'City of Saints'. The city is full of bazaars, mosques, shrines and superbly designed tombs. A network of rails, highways and air flights has well connected Multan to the rest of the world.

......away from home..

Multan (Pakistan) is one of the oldest cities in the world and was a major center of Sufism in the middle of the last millennium. Today, the shrines of the saints are a reminder of that glorious bygone era. Here, I have captured the most magnificent of them all: the shrine of Shah Rukn-e-Alam. A masterpiece of pre-Mughal architecture, it is an octogonal structure with three tiers built entirely of red brick. Built at the site of the former Multan Fort, it commands an elevated location with sweeping views of the city below. My favorite monument in a country gifted with many.
