3 MONTHS AFTER BOMBING Marriott reopens in Islamabad !! Three months later, an army of 2,000 laborers have restored the hotel to its former luster. A grand piano and glistening chandeliers grace the new lobby. The old one, which had a glass atrium, shattered in the attack. The facility located near Pakistan's parliament and other key government buildings -- is also now surrounded by a massive security wall.
The hotel's new bombproof wall -- which is 14 feet (3.5-meter) high and 15 feet thick -- is capable of absorbing the shock of even a massive explosion like the one in September.
"The Marriott's reconstruction has sent a strong signal that no terrorist can wipe out the vitality of the people of Pakistan, who want to live a normal life," defence analyst Talat Masood told AFP
