    The place dedicated to Pakistan's heritage. well worth to see the ethnography, history and culture and the different communities that make up Pakistan. There is a very nominal entrance fee, and it was good to note that the entry fee for foreigners is much higher (still peanuts if you convert it into dollars!). The museum is surprisingly well laid out and well-maintained, so that it’s easy to go through it systematically. The museum is a worth visiting place but to double the charm u must visit VIRSA CAFE adjacent to the museum. A restaurant is traditionally designed where you can enjoy the proper desi cuisine in a setting that is both ethnic and modern. A favourite haunt for the people of the twin cities and a must on the itinerary list of visitors.
