Šahi Hamam

Šahi Hamam (pandžabsko شاہی حمام‎, latinizirano: Shā(h)ī (H)a'mām; urdujsko شاہی حمام‎, latinizirano: Shāhī Hamām, lit. 'Kraljeve kopeli'), znano tudi kot Vazir Kana Hamam, je turška kopel, ki je bila zgrajena v Lahoreju, Pandžab, Pakistan, leta 1635 n. št. med vladavino cesarja Šaha Džahana. Zgradil ga je glavni zdravnik mogulskega dvora, Ilam-ud-din Ansari, ki je bil splošno znan kot Vazir Kan. Kopeli so bile zgrajene kot vakuf ali obdaritev za vzdrževanje mošeje Vazir Kana. Kopeli, ki se ne uporabljajo več kot hamam, so med letoma 2013 in 2015 obnovili Aga Khan Trust for Culture in Walled City of Lahore Authority, pri čemer je velik del sredstev zagotovila norveška vlada. Projekt obnove je UNESCO leta 2016 podelil nagrado za zasluge za uspešno ohranitev hamama, ki mu je povrnila 'nekdanji pomen'. Lokacija Šahi Hamam stoji tik v obzidanem mestu Lahore, le nekaj korakov stran od Delhijskih vrat. Šahi Hamam je zadnji preostali hamam iz mogulskega obdobja v Lahoreju. Ozadje V mogulskem obdobju so uvedli hamame v perzijskem slogu, čeprav v Mogulskem cesarstvu nikoli niso dosegli enake stopnje priljubljenosti kot v Perziji. Zgodovina Šahi Hamam je leta 1635 zgradil Ilam-ud-din Ansari, guverner Lahoreja, kot del obdaritve, ki je vključevala mošejo Vazir Kana. Kopeli so v 18. stoletju med zatonom in padcem Mogulskega cesarstva prenehale biti v uporabi. Od zgodnjega britanskega obdobja naprej je bila stavba uporabljena za različne namene - kot osnovna šola, ambulanta in rekreacijski center ter urad za lokalno občino. Poleg tega so bile na severno, zahodno in južno fasado stavbe vgrajene trgovine. Izkopavanja kot del obnovitvenih del, ki so bila zaključena leta 2015, so pokazala, da so bili precejšnji deli stavbe predhodno porušeni, da bi verjetno naredili prostor za rekonstrukcijo stavbe Delhijskih vrat v 1860-ih. Sestava Hamam je bil sestavljen iz treh delov: jama khana (prostor za oblačenje), nim garm (topla kopel) in garm (vroča kopel). Kopeli so bile ločene po spolu in so vsebovale sprejemno sobo ter majhno molilnico. Arhitektura V skladu s perzijsko tradicijo so bile kopeli osvetljene s sončno svetlobo, ki se je filtrirala skozi več odprtin v stropu kopeli, kar je prav tako pomagalo pri prezračevanju. Večina notranjosti hamama je ohranjena nedotaknjena, ohranjenih je tudi več fresk iz mogulske dobe. Ker je imelo pročelje malo oken, je bilo trgovinam dovoljeno delovati vzdolž zunanjih sten hamama. Ohranjanje Sklad Aga Khan za kulturo (AKTC) je s financiranjem norveške vlade začel obnovitvena dela v kopališču, da bi ohranil prostor, obnovil prvotno postavitev stavbe ter odkril in ohranil freske iz mogulskega obdobja, ki so krasile stavbo. stene. Dela so bila zaključena leta 2015 in izboljšave naj bi 'dramatično' spremenile okolico. Leta 2016 je UNESCO projektu obnove Šahi Hamama podelil nagrado za zasluge za njegovo »visoko stopnjo tehnične usposobljenosti« in za vrnitev bogato okrašenemu Šahi Hamamu njegov nekdanji pomen«. Izkopavanja so odkrila strukturo za ogrevanje vode, drenažni sistem in podtalne ostanke njenih hipokavstov. Galerija Sklici zunanje povezave

High Commission of India, Islamabad

The High Commission of the Republic of India in Islamabad is the diplomatic mission of India to Pakistan. From 1976–1989, 1999–2004, and 2007–2008, the mission was known as the Embassy of India, Islamabad due to Pakistan's withdrawal or suspension from the Commonwealth of Nations during those time periods. Indo-Pakistani diplomatic relations were suspended on two occasions, in 1971 due to the Indo-Pakistani war of 1971, and from 2001–2003 due to the 2001 Indian Parliament attack and 2001–2002 India–Pakistan standoff In 2019, in response to India's revocation of the special status of Jammu and Kashmir, Pakistan downgraded diplomatic ties with India. Since then, the diplomatic mission is being headed by a Chargé d'affaires. The incumbent Charge d'affaires is Geetika Srivastava, who is also the first woman to head the Indian diplomatic mission to Pakistan. Location The Indian High Commission is located in the G-5 Diplomatic Enclave, Islamabad. History Sri Prakasa, an Indian freedom fighter and politician was appointed as the first Indian high commissioner to Pakistan upon the request of Jawaharlal Nehru. Prakasa had to deal with the influx of refugees amidst the Partition of India as well as the Indo-Pakistani war of 1947–1948. The original High Commission was located in Karachi, which was Pakistan's Federal Capital from 1947-1959. The Indian High Commission moved to Islamabad in 1966 upon the relocation of Pakistan's capital city to Islamabad. Diplomatic tensions Amidst the Indo-Pakistani war of 1971, diplomatic relations between India and Pakistan were suspended as India recalled its High Commissioner from Pakistan. Diplomatic relations would be restored in 1976 and the Indian High Commissioner would return to Pakistan. In 2001, in the aftermath of the 2001 Indian Parliament attack, India recalled its diplomatic mission from Islamabad. Diplomatic relations were restored in 2003. In 2019, in response to India's revocation of the special status of Jammu and Kashmir, a meeting of the Pakistani National Security Committee decided to downgrade Pakistan's diplomatic relations with India. The High Commissioner to India was recalled and the Indian High Commissioner to Pakistan was expelled. Since then, India's High Commission in Islamabad is being headed by a Chargé d'affaires. In 2025, following the Pahalgam attack, the Indian High Commission in Islamabad saw increased security concerns, including public protests near the mission. India withdrew its military advisers from the High Commission and reduced its staff from 55 to 30. These measures were part of broader diplomatic actions amid heightened India–Pakistan tensions, including reciprocal expulsions of military personnel and the suspension of key bilateral agreements, including the suspension of the Indus Water Treaty.

It manufactures airfryers, washing machines, freezers, split air conditioner and microwave ovens. History Dawlance was founded in 1980 by Bashir Dawood, a member of Dawood family, as a manufacturer of refrigerators. In 1988, the company expanded its product line by introducing deep freezers. In the mid-1990s, Dawlance began manufacturing air conditioners, microwave ovens, washing machines and water dispensers in Pakistan. In 2015, Dawlance had a revenue of $220.6 million selling product's in Pakistan and Middle East. Similarly, its EBITDA earnings amounted to $45 million. It has 37 branches in addition to 750-plus franchises across the country In November 2016, it was acquired by Arçelik for $258m, and since then functions as a wholly owned brand for Arçelik. The acquisition was carried out by Ardutch BV, a subsidiary of Arçelik, which purchased United Refrigeration (Private) Limited and Dawlance (Private) Limited from Bashir and Mariyam Dawood for $148 million, and Dawlance Electronics (Private) Limited from Pan Asia Equity Limited, based in the British Virgin Islands, for $94 million. The acquisition drew attention due to the significant increase in the value of Dawlance Electronics, which had been sold to Pan Asia Equity Limited by Bashir Dawood in 2013 for just $3.3 million. The State Bank of Pakistan sought clarifications regarding the rapid appreciation in the company's value and the potential involvement of Dawood with Pan Asia Equity Limited. Following the acquisition, the State Bank of Pakistan temporarily froze Dawood's bank accounts, holding over 19 billion rupees, due to concerns under the Anti-Money Laundering Act. Dawood's name had also appeared in the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists' "offshore leaks", which highlighted his connection to Golden Lake Ventures Group Inc in the British Virgin Islands, adding to the controversies surrounding the business transactions.

Well of Dina Nath

The Well of Dina Nath (Punjabi: دِینا ناتھ دا کُھوہ , Urdu: دینا ناتھ کا کنواں) was intended to be a water well in the Wazir Khan Chowk in Lahore, Punjab, Pakistan. The well's construction in the 19th century by a Sikh nobleman sparked controversy, given its location in the immediate vicinity of the Wazir Khan Mosque. History The well was commissioned by Raja Dina Nath in the mid 19th century under the reign of Ranjit Singh. The well was not built as an open well, but is instead enclosed within a walled structure. It is said that Nath wished to build his well near the site of a well dug Sufi saint Said Soaf despite strong objections from local Muslim leaders who viewed construction of a second well to be antagonistic to the saint's memory. Disregarding their warnings and objections, Dina Nath ordered construction to begin on the site. After 200 metres of digging, labourers could not tap a water source, and refused to dig any further, much to the embarrassment of Dina Nath. The well has remained dry ever since, and remains a local monument. Restoration The well fell into disrepair, and was eventually surrounded by illegally constructed shops which had encroached upon the Wazir Khan Chowk. In 2012, the Aga Khan Trust for Culture and the Government of Punjab launched restoration efforts which have since removed the illegal shops, restoring public access to the well.

Neevin Mosque

Jamia Karimia Mosque (Urdu: جامعہ کریمیہ مسجد), also known as the Neevin Mosque, or Neevin Masjid (Punjabi: نیویں مسیت, romanised: Nīvī̃ Masīt, lit. 'The low [lying] mosque'), is a 15th-century mosque built during the Lodi dynasty of the Delhi Sultanate. It is located in the ancient Walled City of Lahore, in Pakistan's Punjab province. It is notable for its foundation 25 feet below street level. The mosque is further noted for being one of Lahore's few remaining pre-Mughal monuments. Location Neevin Mosque is situated within the Walled City of Lahore along a small street named Kucha Dogran. The mosque is located near the historic Lohari Gate, and is near the Chowk Matti square. History While Lahore is widely known for its Mughal-era monuments, Naveen Mosque is believed to have been built in 1460 CE by the Lodi dynasty under the rule of its first king, Bahlul Lodi. The dynasty was founded in Multan in Pakistan's Punjab province, though the founders were of Pashtun extraction. The mosque is believed to have been built by Zulfiqar Khan, who served under Lahore's governor, Haybat Khan. Unlike the Badshahi Mosque, Sunehri Mosque, and Mariyam Zamani Mosque which were desecrated under Sikh rule,these were later returned for Islamic worship following representations made by the Muslim community to Ranjit Singh. Neevin Mosque remained untouched. It also was not greatly altered in appearance under Sikh and British rule, although its minarets had to be rebuilt following an earthquake in the early 1900s. Architecture From the mosque's entrance on the street, visitors must descend a staircase to access the mosque's prayer hall. The mosque's unusual foundation below street level is atypical for Lahore's other mosques, although at one time there two such mosques - the other near Yakki Gate was rebuilt in the 20th century and is now at street-level. In contrast to usual mosque construction, Hindu temples are sometimes built with subterranean vaults and chambers, leading to speculation that the mosque could have possibly been built upon the remains of an earlier Hindu temple. The mosque's prayer hall can accommodate approximately 100 worshippers, and is divided into three roughly equally-sized sections. Each section features a short dome typical of the Lodi-style, as well as an archway that opens onto the mosque's central courtyard. Administration The mosque is run by the local community under the leadership of an Imam. References

Kutiah-Lungma-Gletscher

Der Kutiah-Lungma-Gletscher ist ein 17 km langer und im Mittel 900 m breiter Gletscher in den Karakorum-Bergketten im Stak-Tal des Bezirkes Skardu im pakistanischen Sonderterritorium Gilgit-Baltistan. Lage Der Kutiah-Lungma-Gletscher befindet sich am oberen Ende des Stak-Tals (auch als Staq geschrieben), das im Kreis Roundu des Bezirks Skardu in Gilgit-Baltistan liegt. Der Gletscher liegt 70 km nordöstlich des Nanga Parbats (des neunthöchsten Gipfels der Welt) sowie etwa 20 Kilometer nördlich vom Indus entfernt. Der Kutiah-Lungma-Gletscher hat sein Nährgebiet an der Südostflanke des 7406 m hohen Haramosh. Der Qosomber-Gletscher ist ein 8 km linker Tributärgletscher. Man kann den Gletscher von Juni bis September von Skardu oder Gilgit erreichen, da er ca. 10 km von der Gilgit-Skardu-Straße entfernt ist. Eine unbefestigte Straße zweigt bei der Flussmündung des Stak Nala in den Indus von der Gilgit-Skardu-Straße ab und führt zum Basislager des Gletschers. Ausdehnung und Rückzug des Gletschers Im Jahr 1955 war der Gletscher innerhalb von 91 Tagen etwa 12,8 Kilometer in Richtung des besiedelten Gebietes vorgerückt. Der Gletscher wuchs jeden Monat rund anderthalb Kilometer – 5 Meter pro Stunde – und verschlang mehrere Hektar Weideland. Gemäß den Erzählungen der Dorfältesten bewegte sich der Gletscher mit spürbarer Geschwindigkeit vorwärts, indem er zuerst vertikal anwuchs und dann plötzlich flach in sich zusammenfiel. Innerhalb weniger Monate hatte der Gletscher den ersten Weiler erreicht, und Befürchtungen wurden laut, dass das gesamte Stak-Tal vom Gletscher verschlungen werden könnte. In der Vorstellung der indigenen Bevölkerung gilt der Kutia-Lungma-Gletscher als weiblich. Er habe sich vorwärtsbewegt, um sein männliches Gegenstück zu treffen, den Gletscher im gegenüberliegenden Ganji-Tal auf der anderen Seite des Indus. Nachdem die Dorfbewohner Eisstücke des anderen Gletschers geholt und rituelle Handlungen durchgeführt hatten, habe sich der Gletscher mehrere Kilometer zurückgezogen. Jetzt liegt der Gletscher etwa 4 bis 5 Kilometer oberhalb von Tookla, dem letzten Dorf im Stak-Tal. Einzelnachweise Weblinks Günter Seyfferth: Karakorum Chogolungma-Glacier & Haramosh-Range.

Kutiah Lungma

O Kutiah Lungma é uma geleira (glaciar) de 12 km de comprimento e 3 km de espessura na cordilheira de Caracórum, no vale Stak do distrito de Skardu, Gilgit-Baltistão, no Paquistão. Está localizado em um vale, Stak (pode-se denominar também como Staq), que está na subdivisão Roundu do distrito de Skardu. A geleira está a norte do Nanga Parbat (o nono pico mais alto do mundo) a cerca de 20 km da margem norte do rio Indo. Pode-se acessar a geleira de junho a setembro a partir da cidade de Skardu ou Gilgit, já que fica a cerca de 10 km da estrada Gilgit-Skardu. Uma estrada não-alcatroada da estrada de Giligt-Skardu na junção do rio Indus e o fluxo do Vale Stak leva ao acampamento base da geleira. Efeito climático A geleira havia avançado cerca de 12,8 km em 1955 para a área povoada dentro de 91 dias. A geleira estava avançando a uma taxa surpreendente de pouco mais de uma milha por mês, 15 pés a cada hora e devorou ​​acres de pastagens. Os anciãos locais ainda contam a história do avanço das geleiras em direção ao pasto. De acordo com os anciãos, a geleira avançou a uma taxa muito notável, ou seja, a geleira cresceria primeiro verticalmente e, de repente, ficava plana. Dentro de meses, a geleira chegou na primeira aldeia e as pessoas estavam muito preocupadas com o fato de todo o Stak Valley ser devorado pela geleira se não se retirassem. As pessoas também o relacionam com uma lógica indígena de que as geleiras também têm gênero e a geleira Kutia Lungma era feminina e estava avançando para atender sua contraparte masculina, ou seja, a geleira no oposto Vale de Ganji, através do rio Indus. As pessoas acreditam que era real. Os anciãos contam que eles trouxeram pedaços de gelo da outra geleira que eles achavam que eram do sexo masculino e deixaram cair as peças de gelo na geleira Kutia Liungma. Junto com as pessoas organizaram rituais e oraram a Deus para salvá-los do glaciar avançando. Dentro de dois a três anos, a geleira recuou cerca de 4-5 quilômetros. Agora, a geleira está a cerca de 4-5 km a partir da última vila de Stak Valley, conhecida como Tookla Village. Referências
