Jehangir Kothari Parade

Karachi, Pakistan

Jehangir Kothari Parade is a promenade (waterfront elevated sandstone public walkway) built on land bequeathed or donated by Seth Jehangir Hormusji Kothari to the city of Karachi back in 1919. It is situated on a hilltop in the Clifton area of the city famous for its Seaview Beach on the Arabian Sea which was built in 1919 and opened to Karachi public in 1920. There are two structures: the Promenade Pavilion and the Pier of the complex (elevated sandstone public walkway) which is named after Lady Lloyd, wife of then Governor of Bombay Sir George Lloyd. This is evident in the marble plaque embedded in the pier wall that reads, "Lady Lloyd Pier".
