Shakarparian

Shakarparian (Urdu: شکر پڑیاں; also known as Shakarparian Hills) is a hill and a national park located near the Zero Point Interchange in Islamabad, Pakistan. Pakistan Monument and Pakistan Monument Museum are also located in Shakarparian.

The old Gakhar tribe leaders settled here before the Indo-Pak partition in 1947; later, the clan was relocated to create a park for the newly marked federal capital of the country in 1960–61.

Shakarparian also has a parade ground that hosts the Pakistan Day Parade every year on 23 March.
