Arriving in ISLAMABAD, PAKISTAN (I’m back) 🇵🇰

[@floragonning]

If you guys have any recommendations of places in Pakistan I should visit over the next few weeks, please let me know in the comments down below! (especially hiking/adventure/outdoor stuff is appreciated 😉)

[@gulqureshi5681]

There is a mountain named Tirich Mir in KPK province. Its a 7000m plus mountain. Not many people have been there. You should try to go to its base camp if possible and feasible!! There is not much content about it on Internet or YT.

[@gulqureshi5681]

Do a full hitchhike tour of North Pakistan ❤ It will be watchable stuff.

[@But_Whyyyy]

Swat (the switizerland of pakistan). Especially Chukail Banda, Swat. But I doubt the security there.

[@floragonning]

@@gulqureshi5681 Oooh I remember seeing this mountain from our hotel in Chitral, yes! Gonna look into it, thanks 👌

For those who did'nt understand the how islamabad monument represent unity. The big four petals are actually representing the 4 major proviences of Pakistan Punjab, KPK, Baluchistan and sindh. And three small petal represent the three territories which are Kashmir, gilgit and FATA (Tribal Areas) Now the fata is part of KPK.

I just got job in isamabad and i don't know why isamabad is so addictive place i didn't want to go to my home Town in Pakistan (swabi) even i spent more than three months. People are friendly and atmospheric are adorable. I love to so something for my people. Full support to my beautiful and friendly pakistani people. Love All of you from swabi.

[@mkh9624]

Why do Pakistani women dress so badly when they go out? In the store, in the subway, in the bus, when I see them, they always wear long jeans with high heels, what is the reason? I live in California and I have traveled to many developed countries. One of the only points that caught my attention was that Pakistani and East Asian women in general do not like to wear socks and mostly wear open shoes, i.e. sandals. , slippers and... on the contrary, American women who mostly wear socks and shoes and are not interested in showing their legs to men, Asian women wear sandals even in the cold seasons of the year!!! What is the reason?😂😂😂😂

Welcome Back!

[@elisabethcamariajacobs8587]

Wow, this is a trip along memory lane...I travelled in 1982 from being in the Phillipines for 2 yrs to Sri Lanka, where i studied accupuncture for a few months just enough to help slum folks in Manila. However me and my friend continued with an extended journey thru India and finally Pakistan. Different at that time, a kurta dress and shawl were required, no Uber, no internet existed. During the bus rides, my friend had to sit next to me, so no man could touch a female. But everybody was soo friendly and we were constantly invited in peoples homes. In Lahore, border town, all foreigners slept at the Salvation Army. Hotels were not safe,because drugs were planted. For the rest the whole country felt safe. Beautiful Swaab, Hunza valley stunning in those days, simple life, but caution in Karachi. Yes of course Pakistan is changed after such a long time. Currently living in Nepal.

[@mobeenshafaat07]

Hey, Flora! Welcome back! Go for hiking in the Margalla Hills. There are many good hiking trails there. Also go to the Monal Restaurant in the same hills for dinner. If you do, you'll get to see the most picturesque view of Islamabad, especially at evening. Take care, and have a blast in Pakistan once again!

*Pakistan: **_the best kept secret in the world._* I recently visited Pakistan for the first time in my life. My conclusion of that journey is clear: Pakistan ruined my future trips to any country of the world forever. The country has raised the bar so high for me that it will be difficult to find a place as energising and invigorating as Pakistan. I have had the opportunity to visit many countries in the world, but I had never been as stimulated as I was in Pakistan. The colours and styles of the traditional kurtas are mind-blowing. The religious devotion and spirituality of the people are heartwarming. Their passion for cricket is contagious. The rhythm and lyrics of Qawwali are so energising that I found very difficult not to dance. Pakistanis’ respect and promotion of their traditions and culture is so compelling that I came back feeling a little Pakistan myself. The humility and generosity of Pakistani people is indescribable. I felt like a king during the ten days that I spent there. I was pampered and taken care of by every Pakistani that I met. Pakistan is the best kept secret of the world. Anyone would expect to encounter hordes of tourists in this magical country. The reality, however, is still very different. I was one of the few international tourists that was sightseeing the Shahi Qila or renting a boat at Attabad Lake. For someone like me who avoids masses of tourists as much as possible, Pakistan was paradise on earth. I do not expect this lack of tourism to remain for a long time. Hence, I always tell people avid for adventure to visit Pakistan before the world learns about the beautiful secret that Pakistan is. As a proud Mexican who lives in the United States, I go around sharing with everyone my new love for Pakistan, the country that stole my heart.

I was born and raised in the Netherlands. And i visited Pakistan 3 times. In 2011, 2022 and in 2023. My experience is that no matter how things are so different out there and as westerners not so used to those things. The people and food are always the best on earth.

welcome back Flora 🥰 but its so hot outside now a days in Pakistan hope you don't get tanned 😩 be careful

[@arsalanchauhan]

Islamabad is love, I was born and brought up here, and feel lucky for that. I eman I would have not wanted any where in the world not only Pakistan to be a place where I grew up. Thou todays Islamabad is alot changed, I mean alot...it was v peaceful 20 years ago, v less crowded and much more green and atmosphere v clean, we could see the mountains everyday which we hardly could now a days due to smog. But still I live this citymore than any other city, I know people who have moved around teh world to go and settle and thei rlove for Islamabad is still the same. BTW I am surprised no one suggested you F-9 Park, I go there for daily walks and trust me after spending so much time there I find something new everytime I visit it. Waiting to see you visit more places of the Pakistan, I would highly recommend visiting Pakistani villages in Central Pakistan in winter time, after even visiting alot of Northern Pakistan, I still find the central Punjab village life the most beautiful, laid back and tranquil of them all, atleast as a visitor, ofcouse Islamabad holds first place but still 2nd love would be this village life, specially seiing Islamabad change alot in few decades.

[@awansukka]

Who can match Dutch punctuality, Ms Gonning? I have good luck to have stayed in the Netherlands for about a week. Much of the pleasure was taken out as it was an official visit and there were a lot of meetings in a day. That is how I remember your nation's punctuality. Even then I managed to sneak out of the official party and see Amsterdam. We went to The Hague on an official engagement. The day in Islamabad begins at a much leisurely pace. But it is good you used the "law of unintended consequences" to your advantage and saw the real gem, Shakarparian. This is a historic place as standing atop this hill the rulers finalized where new capital was to be built. There are a few other interesting features around. I hope you visit us again and explore little more of this misunderstood land of loving people.
