Lahore...The Heart of Pakistan

I arrived in Lahore last January 7, 2004 and this was the place where I spent most of my days in Pakistan. My friends live here and I made a surprised visit with them. Their family welcomed me with hugs and kisses that made me touched so much!

Pakistani people are indeed warm and hospitable! They almost give everything to you. I met a lot of new friends and they were so friendly and sweet.

I promised with them that after 3 to 5 years, I will return to visit Pakistan again together with my future wife and kids too.

Image of Pakistan as a country itself may not be really good to the eyes of the world (due to media, ads, etc) but I would say that Pakistan is safer compared to my homeland.

Try to visit Pakistan and see yourself how Pakistani people will change your thinking about their country!!!

After numerous unsuccessful plans, finally I can travel now without hindrance to Pakistan and visit my long lost friends and new friends as well. First destination is what they called the "Heart of Pakistan"---Lahore and hopefully I can visit some friends also who lives in Karachi, Sialkot and Gujranwala. I can't wait wearing my traditional Pakistani dress (i.e. Shalwar Kamiz) which was given to me when I was still in Saudi Arabia
