Did You Know?
Faisalabad's centre was planned in 1892 around eight bazaars radiating from a clock tower, in a pattern said to echo the Union Jack. The clock tower still stands and the eight bazaars still function.
The clock: Faisalabad keeps UTC+5 and produces a large share of Pakistan's textile exports — which is why a city built around a clock tower now runs on shift patterns.
