Explanation

Islamabad is known as the 'Brasilia of Pakistan' because, like Brasilia in Brazil, it is a purpose-built capital city designed according to a master plan. The city was developed in the 1960s with a clear grid layout, wide avenues, and a focus on government institutions and administration. Its planned nature and role as the national capital closely resemble the characteristics of Brasilia.
