You can't miss this park as there is a large tacky model of the mountain where the first nuclear test was carried out slap-bang in the middle.
Crowd: Mainly 'well-off' locals and also air crew.
Neighbourhood: Saddar.

The easiest way is by Taxi. All the drivers will know it. It is also directly opposite the Sheraton Hotel.

- Hours:Late morning until night.
- Cruising Info/ Tips:Eye contact is the usual starting point. If you sit on a bench make sure that there is room for a guy to sit next to you but that you are near enough to start first contact e.g. brushing your leg against him. Try to contact the better dressed men. If you are into 'rough trade' remember they probably will not speak English and would not be allowed into most hotels due to their appearence.
Cruisiest Spots: There is some action in the health club but the best place is the park just behind the hotel. This is frequented by a mixture of locals. Avoid Sunday (except night time) as the whole park is swamped by local families playing cricket. The resulting number of flying cricket balls is like being on an army firing range. - br
- The whole park is cruisy but towards the back there is a sheltered area which would be OK night time for some action.
- Nudity / Policy:Never. Even going topless as a man in a park although not illegal, will be considered very odd. Also the wearing of shorts is considered strange unless on the beach or by a pool.
- Wheelchair Accessible:No
- Warnings:Police action is minimal here but as with many parks in Pakistan (also on the streets) tourism is minimal and you may spend the whole day without seeing another white face. So if you are white you will therefore stick-out so be careful not to confuse genuine curiosity about you by the locals with interest. Cruising is very covert and can take ages before you are sure that you are onto a good thing.
