Old 500 Rupee Note & State Bank of Pakistan

As simple as it may look, this picture actually took a while to get correctly. I first entered the State Bank compound to take this picture, however the angle from the entrance of the compound was not the correct angle at all. Unfortunately, since the picture on the note was taken, there had been a lot of developments, new buildings, and walls built around the building. So I went to another building and tried to climb the roof of the parking garage. I did that, but did not get a good picture again. So I tried a third building, and this picture was from the roof of that building. Even though the angle is not 100% correct, with most of the dome hidden, but that roof was the only place where the building would show at a close enough angle.
