Mohatta Palace

Mohatta Palace is off a main road but quite hidden I would say in that passing by you wouldn't realize it if gate closed. Once you walk into the gates it's as if you've escaped the chaotic & bustling part of Karachi into a nice, quiet and serene garden as the front courtyard of the palace. Enjoy the gardens for a bit as you make our way to the main door. The entry was minimal and worth as when you enter the palace, you not only are in awe with the architecture but also there are usually a couple exhibits on. When we went there was one on maps and the other on fabrics & fashion. It was quite focused on Pakistan and very nicely laid out. We had budgeted 2 hours for the visit, but I don't think that was enough. You imagine it to be a small place of quick in and out but the exhibits are quite intriguing so take out a half day I would recommend if you want to go through it all in detail and see the details of the interiors of the palace as well as some history is given on the palace. I enjoyed this getaway right in the heart of Karachi. Locals and visitors should all consider a visit

Not good enough. Simple theme. It based on only photo frames. Camera not allowed. If it allowed no one will visit this place.

A very very important place in the city of light, karachi. Mohatta palace is a place where you find culture redifined. Historic moments of the nation can bee seen there to recall your history. A place to go and get to know the history for sure. Not to forget a very beautiful place to visit

This place is good. But one is not allowed to take pictures inside. The inside of this place can get better and even better if this whole museum is set open for people. But people who love historical sites will like it

It is a great museum that's extremely easy on the wallet as well. Rs. 30 entry with no time limit. Once you're done with the exhibitions, you can hang out in the garden (which is beautiful and very well maintained!) You have to turn in your cell phones when you go see the exhibit inside. The air conditioning is great which keeps the exhibits safe. The staff is very polite and helpful. There's a cute little gift shop. But beware, the staff that runs it takes really long breaks.
