EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the unique architectural charm of Peshawar, a historic city located in the northwest of Pakistan. The image showcases a general view of the iconic double-deckers, a distinctive feature of the city's urban landscape. These two-level buildings, with their intricate facades and ornate balconies, have long been a symbol of the rich cultural heritage of the Frontier Province. The double-deckers in Peshawar were originally constructed during the British colonial era, and their design was influenced by the need to accommodate the diverse population of the city. The upper level provided living quarters for the wealthy merchants and nobles, while the lower level housed shops and businesses. The photograph offers a captivating perspective of the double-deckers, with their red-tiled roofs and intricately carved wooden balconies creating a stunning visual contrast against the clear blue sky. The narrow streets and winding alleys that crisscross the old city add to the sense of mystery and intrigue, making it an ideal destination for history buffs and architectural enthusiasts. As one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the region, Peshawar has a rich and complex history that spans over 2,500 years. The city has been ruled by various empires and dynasties, including the Greeks, Persians, Mughals, and British, leaving behind a unique blend of cultures and architectural styles. This photograph is a testament to the enduring beauty and historical significance of Peshawar's double-deckers, which continue to captivate visitors from around the world. It is a reminder of the city's rich past and its role as a vibrant cultural hub in the heart of the North-West Frontier Province.
