Kati Pahari, once synonymous with violence in Karachi, still tells a story of struggle and survival.

Life on the hill is hard, with narrow, steep paths with no proper safety measures, making even daily movement a challenge. If someone falls ill or dies, residents are forced to carry them down by hand, as no ambulance can reach the top.

Yet, beyond these harsh realities, Kati Pahari offers another face: a climb through uneven stairs and rugged tracks leads to a breathtaking view of Karachi, the city stretching like an endless canvas.
