The intersection of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and virtual or immersive technologies transformed the representation and preservation of cultural heritage by providing interactive means of interacting with historical accounts. Pakistan, a nation that is proverbially rich in varied cultural heritages, oral traditions, and architectural heritage, presents opportunities for reimagining and preserving its culture using AI-powered virtual heritage. This review critically discusses the AI contribution in creating immersive experiences that recreate, conserve, and interpret Pakistani cultural narratives using virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and machine learning (ML). In analyzing the latest developments in AI-based digital reconstructions, interactive narrative, and virtual curation of museums, this paper discusses how such technologies promote accessibility, learning, and cultural continuity. It examines the ethical and epistemological issues of digital heritage, such as authenticity, data bias, and the digital divide. Overall, this research emphasizes how immersive experiences powered by AI can close the gap between past and present, reshaping cultural experience for generations to come
