EIFFEL TOWER REPLICA LAHORE

Image
There are many replicas of the famous monuments across the world. One of the huge replica's festival, I ever remember is non other than the famous "GLOBAL VILLAGE" held in Dubai every year.   What I am going to share now is about  replica of Eiffel Tower, located in the luxurious neighborhoods in Lahore bahria town, Pakistan. Visited Lahore Eiffel tower today and when I shared the picture, someone asked me when did you go Paris 😅 So that is enough to proof how much it resembles to the original one's. Anyone can be deceived by the first impression of it's picture until and unless you will see it closely. It is a worth visiting place as well bahria grand mosque and Egyptian replicas. There is lift facility to take you up as there seems a  restaurant. Due to time constraint and avoiding any crowd i visited morning but to get the real view one must go in evening.

THE BEAUTY OF CHRYSANTHEMUM IN FALL WINTERS

Chrysanthemum is known as the flower of fall and winter season. The favorite one of us because it adds colour to our winters. Every year I wait for those colourful exhibitions where i can see a variety of chrysanthemum. Such a fabulous display of colourful flowers. I can't resist taking a series of pictures later uploading to my blog. I enjoy the way i find thousands of these beautiful flowers in the park in autumn days. The another interesting aspect of these flowers is the beautiful symbolism associated with each shade of them. In general they symbolise friendship, love, loyalty and joy.
