Travel Guide to Pakistan


Welcome to the fabulous Pakistan. Pakistan is situated in the west of India and china while Iran and Afghanistan share their border with Pakistan on western side. Pakistan although a very peaceful and very friendly nation has been very badly hit by the notorious war on terrorism by the countries who always envied the landscape and blessing of the country. The local media the war on terror leaders have now destroyed peace and tranquility of some areas of Pakistan's in a game that no one understands. This game is not an old one similar games (Gilgit Game, Great game) were played on this soil many years ago by similar powers. This land Pakistan (The pure Land) be it called Pakistan or be it (Sindu Sapta the real India ) has probably been the most sought after land in the history. From the King Darius of Persia, the Alexander of Macedonia and numerous others have marched here in quest of this land. There has been lot of culture changes in this soil.
Today India boasts to be "India of the past" while it was known as Deserta Incognita (Un Known Desert) in the past. Pakistan is the real old India that world should come to see. This is where Moen Jo Daro of Indus civilization is, This is where the mighty river Indus runs, This here where Buddhism was developed, this is where Sanskrit was born,  and this is where the the Alexander came.
The spectacular views of the mountains the green planes, colorful deserts and the mighty Indus river are just a few things that this country has been blessed with. We are also blessed with the oldest history of the world. When we look at the civilizations like Egypt, Mesopotamia and others our Indus civilizations looks way too far well developed and well planned. We are the first urban civilization where city planning existed. We are the people who had binary system of the weights and the most accurate one 5000 yes five thousand years ago.
Today people talk of taxes and hygiene and organic food and saving nature we have had these ideas in 2500 BC we had a tax system democracy and even a system which was most eco friendly and well aware of nature and was protecting it.
Today when I buy a burger in a so called developed country it is wrapped in paper plastic and foil, the trash weighs more than the burger come to Pakistan where when I buy a burger my friendly burger cooks it right in front of me and and hand it to me in the most plain format with no paper no plastic and no trash.
Pakistan is a paradise and no super power can destroy it. We are facing a time when people are talking all sorts of ill things about us but its only us who see that Pakistan still stands out and boasts to be the most beautiful and most wonderful country in the world.
Today some countries are building largest shopping malls, tallest towers and what not they destroy nature and produce ugly structures which do nothing but hurt our earth can those countries build mountains like K2 can they bring about a river as mighty and as legendry as river Indus.
This is an open invitation to every one come visit Pakistan don't listen to media don't listen to advisories this country is full of friendly folks flora and fauna. Nature smiles here and sun pays its first homage here in Pakistan.
