Monument in Islamabad

I have visited this monument in Islamabad, great work. And slap on the faces of who believe we have forgot our history. And new Islamabad airport name will be Ghandara which mean we are going in right direction.

Hey, could you tell me how sure you are about the name of NIIA being Ghandara? Because we heard that it was going to be called Fatima Jinnah Internationa Airport, then we heard it was going to be named after Benzir.:what:

I would appreciate it!

(Left to Right) Paiju Peak (Trango II?), The Trango Monk, Trango Nameless Tower (6,239 m), and the mass of the Great Trango (6,286 m) on the northern lateral moraine of the Baltoro Glacier in the Baltoro Muztagh Range.

Namless Tower is the world's steepest granite face. Some daredevil tried basejumping off it a couple of years ago. The summits have been so few, that even the elevation data is uncertain!

Climbing up the Namless Tower for example, can involve 90 pitches (of tents). The tent flowers open and you sleep essentially hanging down next to the Nameless' vertical walls!
