It is also the fourth largest mosque in the world. This adds to its popularity as one of the main tourist attractions in Islamabad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Named after the late King Faisal bin Abdul Aziz of Saudi Arabia, Faisal Mosque is perceived as the National Mosque of Pakistan. The magnificent white mosque, designed by a Turkish architect, is the perfect blend of traditional and modern architecture.

The insides of these petals illustrate the history of Pakistan<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n Located at the west viewpoint on the picturesque Shakarparian Hills, the sprawling Pakistan Monument is also one of the best night spots in Islamabad. This architectural marvel not only symbolizes the patriotism of the people who live here but also celebrates those who laid down their lives for the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In case you have never visited this majestic monument, it is divided into two sections: the main monument that is shaped like a blooming flower and a museum, which is located adjacent to the alluring structure. The large petals, which are made of granite, represent the four provinces. Meanwhile, the smaller ones signify Azad Jammu and Kashmir, Gilgit Baltistan and the Federally Administered Tribal Areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Given its location, this national monument offers an enchanting view of the city, which looks even more magical at night. You can pretty much see the entire city in all its dazzling glory from up there, making it one of the must-visit places in Islamabad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Head over to Saidpur Village to spend some time away from the city (Credits: Facebook\/Des Pardes)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n The historical Saidpur Village<\/a> once served as a resort town for Mughal emperors. Now, it has become an important part of the Islamabad nightlife.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Located at a 10-minute drive from the F-6 Markaz, this living heritage site depicts the rich cultural history of the region. This quaint model village houses a Sufi shrine, a Hindu temple and a Gurdawara all in the same area, paying homage to Muslim, Hindu and Sikh cultures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Saidpur Village in Islamabad is an ideal place for those who want to spend some time away from the city without travelling too far. Although you can visit this cultural site at any time of the day, you must spend a few hours here after the sunset as well. Because if you thought the village looked charming during the day, it looks like a place straight out of an old movie at night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
From housing vintage jewellery and souvenir shops on its cobbled streets to the historic art gallery and quaint cafes, Saidpur Village is easily one of the most visited tourist attractions in Islamabad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Moreover, there are a number of famous high-end restaurants located in this model village, making it a popular place to visit in Islamabad at night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jinnah Super Market houses some of the best restaurants in Islamabad<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n Before gigantic luxury malls, such as Centaurus and Giga, opened their doors to the residents of Islamabad, Jinnah Super Market used to be one of the trendiest places to visit in Islamabad at night \u2013 a status it has managed to maintain over the years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This circular market complex houses high-end boutiques, book stores, jewellery shops, gift and handicraft stores, hole-in-the-wall cafes and a few popular restaurants to name a few. Moreover, there is a casual dining area in the middle of the main market. It is surrounded by a number of food carts and kiosks. However, this area gets particularly crowded after sunset, especially during the weekends, as it\u2019s a favourite among locals and tourists alike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So, if you ever visit the area, either for shopping or just to enjoy the nightlife in Islamabad, make sure to spend some time enjoying freshly squeezed lemonade with some steaming hot barbecue at the \u2018Gol Market\u2019 in Jinnah Super. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
On a side note, it\u2019s also a good area to live if you\u2019re planning to invest in Islamabad<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
