    Abstract:
    The British rule still has a sway on us and we still unconsciously see them as our masters/ or a better race than us in terms of looks, language, traditions clothing style and hobbies. Though the Britishers only enforced their norms through law and schooling but its impact was long-lasting and deep-rooted amongst the young natives.the current architectural format of Pakistani buildings is inspired from British architecture as opposed to local designs and aesthetics specially regarding room aeration and lightening. Many of the botanical flowers and ferns that we see in Pakistan were introduced by Britishers which were than made part of the gardening aesthetics by the then influential Pakistanis to show-off their civilised family background.
