By Eating in Pakistan 74 views 3 hours ago
Not just another old building… this place has ✨secrets✨ carved into every wall! Explore Karachi's enigmatic Freemasons Lodge, famously known as "Jadu Ghar" (House of Sorcery), built in 1914. Its Greek columns and stunning Victorian + Edwardian architecture hold tales of a mysterious past.
Discover its journey from a secret society's hub, abandoned after the 1972 ban on #Freemasonry, to its remarkable revival in 1982 as the #SindhWildlifeDepartment. Today, this historic #HeritageBuilding boasts a fascinating museum downstairs and a treasure trove of over 9,000 rare books (yes, handwritten ones too!) in its upstairs library. This is more than a structure; it's #Karachi's silent history still breathing. Watch till the end!
