The twin cities of Rawalpindi and Islamabad lie against the backdrop of Margalla Hills on the Pqtohar plateau. On the basis of archaeological discov- eries, archaeologists believe that a distinct culture flourished on this plateau as far back as 3,000 years.HistoryThe material remains found on the site of the city of Rawalpindi prove the existence of a Buddhist establishment contemporary to Taxila but less celebrated than its neighbour. It appears that the ancient city went into obliv!on as a result of the Hun devastation. The first Muslim inyader, Mahmood of Ghazni (979- 1030 AD), gifted the ruined city to a Gakkhar Chief, Kai Gohar. The town, how- ever, being on invaders' route, coUld not prosper and remained deserted until Jhanda Khan, another Gakkhar Chief, restored it and gave the name of Rawalpindi after the village Rawal in 1493 AD. Rawalpindi remained under the rule of Gakkhars till Muqarrab Khan, the last Gakkhar ruler, was defeated by Sikhs in 1765 AD. Sikhs invited traders from other places to settle here. This brought the city into prominence. Sikhs lost the city to British in 1849 AD. It then became the General Headquarters of British Army and they established a Qantonment south of the old city. In 1879, the Punjab Northern Railway was added to to Rawalpindi but the train service was formally inaugurated on January 01,1886.Over the years, Rawalpindi has retained its traditional flavour. However, some modern residential areas and buildings have come up allover the town since the creation of Pakistan. Pakistan's new capital, Islamabad being the twin city of Rawalpindi, equally shares the same archaeological and historical back- ground.Sir Khawaja died in 1964, aged 70.
He was buried at Suhrawardy Udyan in his hometown of Dhaka.HonoursHe was appointed a Companion of the Order of the Indian Empire (CIE) in 1926, and was knighted in 1934 by the King-Emperor George V, when he was appointed a Knight Commander of the Order of the Indian Empire (KCIE). However, he renounced his knighthood in 1946 due to his belief in independence from Britain. * Ayub National Park formerly known as “topi rakh” (stay hat or remove hat) is located by the old Presidency, and between the Murree Brewery Co. and Grand Trunk (G.T.) Road. It covers an area of about 2,300 acres (930 ha) and has a play area, lake with boating facility, an aquarium, a garden-restaurant and an open air theater. This park hosts ‘The Jungle Kingdom’ which is particularly popular among young residents of the city.
* Liaquat Bagh formerly known as the “company bagh” (East India Company’s Garden), is of great historical interest. The first prime minister of Pakistan, Liaquat Ali Khan, was assassinated here in 1950. Pakistan’s Prime Minister Banazir Bhutto was assassinated here on 27 December 2007. She was the youngest elected Prime Minister of the world.
* Rawalpindi Golf Course was completed in 1926 by Rawalpindi Golf Club, one of the oldest golf clubs of Pakistan. The facility was initially developed as a nine-hole course. After several phases of development, it is now a 27-hole course. From the clubhouse, there is a panoramic view of Faisal Mosque, the twin cities of Islamabad and Rawalpindi, and the course itself. Major golf tournaments are regularly held here.s of Pakistan

Aquarium or Akvarium (Russian: Аква́риум) is a Russian rock group, formed in Leningrad in 1972 by Boris Grebenshchikov, then a student of Applied Mathematics at Leningrad State University, and Anatoly (George) Gunitsky, then a playwright and absurdist poet.
In the 1970s and early 1980s, rock and roll was strictly regulated in the Soviet Union, and only a few artists managed to be approved and signed by the government record label Melodiya. Aquarium's usual concert venues were private apartments and they faced many years of fierce competition to land a spot on the label. These "apartment concerts" (квартирники) were a unique Soviet phenomenon, created by underground musicians. They were usually "unplugged", as noise could cause the neighbors to call the police. The limited space fostered an atmosphere of intimacy between the group and its audience, who listened with bated breath, perhaps with someone recording the concert on a simple tape recorder. This was similar to the concepts of the Russian bards. However, Aquarium were admittedly much more influenced by Western rock music, particularly by The Beatles, Bob Dylan, David Bowie, T.Rex, progressive rock acts Jethro Tull, King Crimson and Roxy Music and also new wave and reggae artists. Thus their compositions were considerably more complex and their lyrics covered a broader range of topics, showcasing Grebenshchikov's notable erudition in Celtic and Indian cultures, among other things.
