EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Edwards Gate, Peshawar: A Historic Landmark of Pakistan's North-Western Frontier" The Edwards Gate, also known as Kabul Gate, stands proudly as the main entrance to the vibrant and historic city of Peshawar, Pakistan. Located in the western part of the country, this architectural marvel is a testament to the rich cultural heritage and complex history of the region. Constructed in the late 19th century, the Edwards Gate was initially named Kabul Gate due to its role as the primary entrance to the city from the Kabul Road. However, it was later renamed in memory of Sir Herbert Edwardes, a British Commissioner who played a significant role in the region during the British Raj. The gate is an exquisite example of Islamic and Frontier architecture, featuring intricate geometric patterns, elegant arches, and stunning calligraphy. The gate's design reflects the harmonious blend of various influences, including Persian, Mughal, and Greek, that have shaped the architectural landscape of Peshawar and the wider region. The Edwards Gate leads directly into the bustling Qissa Khawani (Storyteller) Bazaar, a lively marketplace where merchants have been selling their wares for centuries. The bazaar is renowned for its rich textiles, precious stones, and intricate handicrafts, making it a must-visit destination for travelers and locals alike. As a symbol of Peshawar's storied past and vibrant present, the Edwards Gate continues to captivate visitors with its grandeur and historical significance. The gate stands as a reminder of the region's complex history, its rich cultural heritage, and the resilience of its people in the face of adversity. Whether you're a history buff, an architecture enthusiast, or simply a curious traveler, a visit to the Edwards Gate is an essential experience for anyone exploring the North-Western Frontier Province of Pakistan.
