Traveling - My Passion

  The reason Faisalabad is called Manchester of Pakistan because it’s the biggest textile city of Pakistan and all the industries here related to textiles and same is Manchester in UK so these cities are also named as Twin cities.   After Lahore, Faisalabad is famous for its food. The most common snack item samosas of Faisalabad are considered the best in Pakistan. Desi foods and snacks like dahi bhally, gol gappy are the specialities . Biryani and pulao are also very well-known. Moreover no city can boast of a better Dal Chawal serving than Faisalabad. It’s one of the favorite foods here. The parathas available at Ghanta Ghar are very famous and a large crowd comes to attend all night long. They come in different fillings such as potatoes, mixed vegetable, chicken etc. As far as drinks are concerned Rabri, Sugar cane rusk, limo pani and lassi are the most favorite drink of the people of Faisalabad. Lassi is being liked by most Punjabis.   Like all other cities, c...

  Islamabad has already replaced Karachi as the political and cultural center of Pakistan, although the former city had more reputation. Karachi, both in terms of land area and human habitation, is Pakistan's most populous metropolis. In the province of Sindh, this city serves as the provincial capital and is located right on the coast of the expansive Arabian Sea. It is in the top 10 biggest cities in the world. Karachi is located in Sindh, a sizable province of Pakistan. That is technically referred to as Babul Islam, which means "the doorway to Islam." Karachi is noted for its religious significance and its ancient sites at Thatta, Mohenjo-Daro, and Kot Diji. Pakistan's main industrial, commercial, and financial centers account for 54 percent of the country's annual income. The city is the most populous in Pakistan and is known for its many historical sites and ports. This city was given its name because, during the early years of Pakistan's independence,...

  Lahore is a beautiful historic city that is largely regarded as the cultural centre of Pakistan. It was founded in the 16th century. Since its founding sometime about the second century, the city has through a number of transitions and has been ruled by a number of different empires, ranging from the Hindu and Moghul to the Persian, Afghan, Sikh, and British. It has also been occupied by the British. A significant portion of the inner city of Lahore is peppered with vestiges of colonial architecture, including a splendid post office, white-pillared government buildings, and a spectacular church with a gothic-esque style. The other side is characterised by Moghul architecture, with shops and restaurants squeezed in amid the "gates" of the ancient walled city. The walled city dates back hundreds of years. In many ways, Pakistan is ruled by the province of Punjab, which has Lahore as its capital. It is by far the most populous and richest province, accounting for more than 55 ...

  Pakistan is known for its warmth, fine cuisines, ancient places, and most significantly, its gorgeous mountain ranges. K2, the second-highest mountain in the world, is one of five peaks in Pakistan with a height of more than 8,000 metres. In order to attract more tourists, the government is steadily investing in amenities and infrastructure to provide additional attractions for sightseers, skiers, trekkers, and mountaineers. One of PIA's air safari flights, the one to Skardu touted as "the most gorgeous and exhilarating journey," has also resumed.  1. Hunza and Skardu in Gilgit-Baltistan The Gilgit-Baltistan area of Pakistan is where the Himalayas, Karakorams, and Hindu Kush mountain ranges converge, spanning 72,400 square kilometres. For decades, the picturesque valleys of Gilgit, Hunza, and Skardu, nestled under snow-capped hills, have drawn tourists. Stunning views of the Hunza Valley may be had from the valley's high peaks, as well as its ancient sites, which...

The photographs don't do justice to the beauty of this place. Hunza was the destination for a much-needed family vacation at the end of the summer 2020. For some time, we had been working on the details of the trip, but there was one component of it that had us stumped. For those who don't want to deal with airplanes delays and cancellations, driving was an alternative. The second alternative was to fly to Gilgit, then take a two-hour road trip to Hunza from there. It was the picturesque path that ultimately won out. It's a lengthy journey, but it's worth it because of the breathtaking scenery that greets you around every corner. For the most part, I've traveled to Skardu by plane. Driving over the mountains on the Karakoram Highway is a whole other experience. The photographs don't do justice to the beauty of this place. Remember that if something seems amazing in an image, it will be much more beautiful in real. The Hunza Serena Inn, where we slept, pr...
