The Blooming Real Estate of Gujrat

Gujrat is a prominent city of Pakistan and is acknowledged for its local industry, which feeds many major industries of Pakistan. From processed rice to electrical fans and from the best quality shoes to pottery, the items produced here serve the people all over the country. The temperature and soil conditions of Gujrat are perfect for the production of rice and sugar-cane.

Although pottery and ceramic goods are home to Gujrat but pedestal and ceiling fans remain the most popular local products. Terracotta Vases of Gujrat are famous all over Pakistan and feed the aesthetic needs of people in other prominent cities. Some other popular handicrafts of Gujrat include woollen shawls, embroidered clothes, hukkas, flowerpots, and cotton mates.

Because of being away from the central Punjab, Gujrat was ignored on infrastructural and developmental front. However, a lot of progress was witnessed during the mid of 2000s and many roads, colleges, health centres and other institutes of public service were constructed to benefit the citizen of Gujrat. All of these efforts increased the value of real estate of Gujrat in particular and that of Pakistan Real Estate in general.
