The World History Garden is located in the beautiful Nankana Lake Resort. It consists of a walkway full of huge wall panels that are packed with infor-mation on peoples and events over the 5,000 years of world history. Due weight has been given to all regions and cultures of the world— Islamic, European, Americas, India, China, Egyptian and Greco-Roman. The de-tailed timeline elaborates upon the rise as well as the decline of societies, na-tions, cultures and civilizations. The World History garden contributes to-wards rapidly growing aspirations for an education in world history and also contributes towards the nurturing of a cosmopolitan sensibility in our ex-tremely-connected and every shrinking twenty-first century world.

Understand our world - its past and

the way the past informs our future

at the World History Garden.

At the World History Garden in Nankana

Lake Resort, we have unfurled the chronol-

ogy of world history in words, illustrations,

designed to be extremely memorable. We’ve

made learning history a fun activity for all!

"In the age of travel and electronic

communications, the young quickly

acquire portfolios of knowledge and

develop curiosities about other places.

It is an ideal age to teach tolerance

for other cultures and religions. We

think all children in Pakistan must

see this fabulous display of world his-

tory, illustrated in a manner that is

captivating and engaging. Learning

world history can't be more fun".

From the cradles of early civilization

in Mesopotamia, Sumer, Egypt,

China & the Indus Valley through

the strife of the Middle Ages to the

accelerated technological explosions

of the late-twentieth-century society,

the World History Garden located

at Nankana Lake Resort is a fasci-

nating and enthralling display of en-

deavor and determination.

The large panels for instance high-

light the pace of change between

Western and Eastern cultures; walk

along and see how civilized life be-

gan alongside the rivers and deltas

of the Nile, Tigris, Euphrates and

the Yang-Tse; it spread to Greece

and knowledge continued to grow

while Europe moved through the

dark ages; during this period eastern

cultures spawned new religions, es-

pecially Islam, made scientific dis-

coveries and wrote great literature;

See Europe in the Middle Ages, with

advances in war technology and

trade. All this and more displayed in

a wonderfully done timeline.

As the global integration of nations and communities accelerates, the need for spa-tially unfettered historical understanding of people, places and locations of key histori-cal events that shaped our world is becom-ing essential for all citizens of the world— and not just for history teachers and stu-dents.

With its thematic and ingenious timeline concept, cross-referencing is easy and al-lows the information to be readily under-stood and absorbed. Illustrations of wars, treaties, pioneers and treasures, the people who altered the course of history and those who held it back make this journey through history an enjoyable experience – both for teachers and students interested in history. A picture says a thousand words—and yes, the history panels tell our story of 5,000 years.
