Top travel experience in Pakistan
1. Lahore Fort Was built, damaged, demolished and rebuilt, and after several restorations, Lahore Fort was rebuilt in 1566 under the rule of Akbar the Great. This Mughal fortress is the star attraction of Lahore's old town. It has an attractive atmosphere of desolation (not when tourists are weaving, of course), and while not as elaborate and grand as most of India's major forts, it is still a beautiful place to hang out. The Mirror Palace, built for the Empress and her royal family, is decorated with mirrors embedded in stucco walls. In the lavishly decorated marble Naurak Ha Pavilion, gemstone inlays are decorated with mosaic rows of tiny jewels – just as stunning. As you walk through the Alamiri City Gate, you can imagine the grand scene of the royal family traveling in elephants.
2. Flag-lowering ceremony in Waga Whether you plan to travel to India or not, the wonderful daily flag-lowering ceremony is worth your special trip to the border. Since the first flag-lowering ceremony was performed in 1948, this quirky event has been staged every day. The sight of the flags lowered and the gates closed at the ceremony blends an orderly colonial style with a comic-like style of humorous comedy, from which you can clearly feel their desperate desire to compete with their neighbor India. The various strides, nose sprays, stomping feet and angry eyes provoked thunderous applause from the audience, and the audience repeatedly shouted "Pakistan zindabad" to motivate their soldiers. The event was so popular that a grandstand was designed specifically for the patriots who flocked here. If you have time, you can watch the ceremony from both sides of the guardrail, and the goal of the soldiers on both sides is to overwhelm each other with military steps, salutes, and slogans (if you cross the border, you can only watch the ceremony once from India).
3. Sufist sanctuary of Multan Since the 9th century, Multan has been a major Islamic center, and this identity remains to this day. Over the centuries, it has attracted countless Sufi mystics and saints, and nowhere else on the South Asian subcontinent can compare with it. Today, it is home to awe-inspiring temples, mausoleums and mosques. In particular, the Seik Rukn-i-Alam Mausoleum, with its stunning blue and turquoise tiles, is a masterpiece.
4. Chogory Peak Chogory May not be high enough (compared to the nearly 8850-meter Everest, it is only 8611 meters), but it has never been underestimated. As the second highest peak in the world, it is like a sentinel, guarding the border between Pakistan and China, and is a dangerous peak. About a quarter of climbers don't make it down the mountain alive. Only the most experienced climbers dare to try Chogory Peak, so it's better to take a different route. Concordia is a glacial confluence that winds among 4 peaks, where hiking is safe to see the beauty of Chowgoli Peak up close.
5. Mohenzodaro Stroll through the World Heritage Site of Mohenzodaro and feel the prosperity of this Indus Valley metropolis in 2500 BC. The excavated complex of up to 12.5 square kilometers contains auditoriums, baths and houses, giving a deep sense of the exquisite civilization that has disappeared in the long river of time.
6. Crossing the Karakoram Highway In the Indus Valley, where humanity has slowed down for thousands of years, we have exchanged trade goods and ideologies between East and West along the Silk Road. Only the Creator knew why the terrain was so difficult to traverse, but people still overcame everything and eventually began to modernize it in 1986. The 1,200-kilometer Karakoram Highway is opened, passing through the Karakoram Mountains, the Himalayas and the Hindu Kush Mountains, connecting Islamabad with Kashgar in China. It's a surprising stretch of road with bumpy roads and steep downhills that hide the danger of landslides. Along the way, there are dilapidated trucks decorated like Christmas trees, as well as barricades and bandits. But this path is sure to be part of a journey you will never forget.
