old Karachi is so beautiful

Does anyone have any pictures of Mumbai University. I think back in the day it was next to the coast. Later the land was reclaimed.

It is encouraging that the BMC is finally restoring a lot of these beautiful building left to us by the British.

Can someone kindly post the from this link in this thread. I cannot figure out how to.
