AVOID THIS TRAIN IN PAKISTAN 🇵🇰

[@TanerG77]

that traffic is so exhausting, everyting is so intense, navigating through that traffic without being drained physically is absolutely impossible, but people are nice and helpful, that's the good side

[@BackpackerBen]

Couldn’t agree more 🙏🏼

[@sullyx5142]

Sounds like London but the people in London are not nice and helpful

[@user-em2hg6cu5u]

17:55 There's one thing you will find everywhere in the world. A wanker. Peshawar seems like utter organized chaos. It was nice seeing everyone so friendly, helpful and hospitable.

8:03 just behind that white mosque.. there was a shop called blue bells.. i got my first snoop dog cassette from there in the early 90s... best to walk around sadder,, the other side of the roads are controlled by the military and are always blocked off to the public.. if you want to go to a place that not much tourists go to then go to darra adam kheil... pakistans biggest gun market.. i went its really nice..

You have to understand how to use BRT if you have no time choose Express as usually people do, and you'll end in chaos. If you have more time, choose the stopping routes and you'll have a comfortable journey. From the immense crowd, I can say you chose Express.
