The Aiwan-e-Sadr will be open from 0900 to 1600 hours and families can enjoy a day off on the greens of the building, that once was only open to the mighty and powerful.
Prime Minister Imran Khan had vowed in his public addresses to open up all state buildings so that the people can see the lifestyle of their leaders. The people will also be able to visit the grand halls, where oath taking ceremonies of several heads of governments and states, ministers have taken place.
The home to once the all powerful presidents; Ghulam Ishaq Khan, General Pervez Musharraf and Asif Ali Zardari, the building has seen history being made.
The white squarish building represents a modern step pyramid architectural style and is flanked by the Prime Minister House on the one side and the Parliament building on the other.
Prime Minister Imran Khan who announced strict austerity measures by his government is currently residing in the Annexe used by the Military Secretary of the PM House, while plans are underway to convert into a research institute. The Governor Houses at Karachi, Lahore and Peshawar have already been opened up for visitors.
A spokesperson of the President Office said the public would be allowed entry to the Presidency from the National Assembly entrance and the people have been asked to bring in their original CNIC.
