It is often said that Pakistan is a young nation with an old civilization. Pakistan came into being only 56 years ago but the civilization of its people goes back to over 5000 years. The United Nations has declared six world heritage sites in Pakistan. Most of these sites can be said to be in various degrees of neglect.
There is no active hostility in the general populace of Pakistan towards its pre-islamic heritage, such as the one represented by the demolition of the Bamian Buddhas in the neighbouring Afghanistan. The Pakistani attitude can best be described as one of a not-so-benign neglect and indifference, more by the elite than by the state. This lack of pride is leading to the neglect and gradual loss of Pakistan’s priceless cultural heritage.
