Culture has been called "the way of life for an entire society." The main argument of this thesis is that Pakistani culture spreading all over the world. The idea of cultural heritage comes from the concept of the historical monument, first established from a historical point of view. Lok Virsa (National Institute of Folk and Traditional Heritage) Garden Avenue, Shakarparian, Islamabad, Pakistan. It was established in 1974, with a mandate of research, collection, documentation, preservation and diffusion of Pakistan folklore, oral traditions and regional culture. It was noticed that Pakistan has a very ironic and expanded cultural heritage. All the provinces of Pakistan have their own unique cultures and traditions. Dressing style, food pattern, and language skills of each province is also different. In Lok Virsa every individual culture represents the individual identity of every particular provinces of Pakistan.People affirm this fact that Culture allows us to interact to share common meaning, to aligning our patterns of behaviour and ways of communicate with each others.
