Located near the Kahuta Triangle and easily accessible via the GT Road and the Islamabad Highway , Phase II , DHA, is one of Islamabad’s up and coming suburban neighbourhood and a 25-minute drive from Zero Point. Although Phase II was established in the mid-1990s, it is only in the last five to six years that it has come to life , mainly due to an increasing demand for residential property in Islamabad.
