This may not be as gorgeous as some of the Arabic calligraphy exhibits in the earlier years in the city, but it has a formidable and fine character of its own. Muted in presentation it focuses on the letterings and attempts to present the various samples of Arabic script, viz, the Toghra, Nastaliq, Shikastah, Kufic and Naqsh. It is in countries like Saudi Arabia, Iran, Turkey, and Pakistan that Islamic calligraphy is most apparent.
