Karachi gets ‘first-ever’ zipline

KARACHI: In a significant development for Karachi’s recreational landscape, Mayor Murtaza Wahab on Sunday inaugurated the city’s ‘first’ zipline at Safari Park.
The Karachi mayor not only inaugurated the zipline but also personally experienced the thrill of the ride. Deputy Mayor Salman Murad accompanied him during the inauguration ceremony.
Wahab, addressing the media during the event, expressed that the zipline would serve as a novel attraction for the people of Karachi. Wahab also shared his vision of creating additional recreational spots within the city. However, he acknowledged that financial constraints were causing delays in several projects.
Speaking on the occasion, Deputy Mayor Murad highlighted the ongoing development initiatives across all seven districts of Karachi. He announced his plans to introduce horse riding at the Dino Safari Park in the near future. Earlier this year in August, Mayor Karachi inaugurated the newly-developed dinosaur park in Safari Park.
