Welcome to Pakistan, our land, a land of living contrasts - a confluence of centuries old cultures and civilisations, an un-spoiled natural beauty, where mountains meet. A journey to Pakistan will take you back in time, showing you a country that has been invaded countless times, yet embraced this past and emerged with a strong culture and heritage evident in its monuments and archaeological sites.
Come and enjoy modern day Pakistan, whose British colonial legacy is found in art and architecture, and where shopping in the bustling bazaars, is a bargain!

Lahore, the cultural hub of Pakistan reflects the Mughal architecture. The advent of Mughals took place in the 14th century and ruled the subcontinent for nearly 300 years, leaving thousands of monuments, forts and palaces which are the architectural wonders of their time.
Sufism has also greatly influenced this part of the world in its reign. It provided a way to reconcile some of the religious doctrines of the earlier cultural and religious systems of Hindu, Buddhist, Judaic, Christian, Manichean and Zoroastrian societies that had existed prior to the victory of the Islamic conquerors. Despite preaching Islam, they also made a tremendous contribution in all aspects of human culture including painting, decoration, the industrial arts, dance and music, astronomy and mathematics. In Pakistan, Every year “URS” (Death Anniversary of the saints) are celebrated regularly - Qawwali is a prominent characteristic of devotional music used at the shrines of Sufis and Saints as a tribute to their greatness.
Traditional hospitality is an inseparable part of Pakistan’s precious heritage. Visitors can feel the welcome in the eyes of the locals and taste the warmth of hospitality in the tasty traditional meals that are offered. Being the land of diversity, Pakistan has inherited different cultures - depicted at different festivals celebrated around the year. It is this diversity of history and culture that makes Pakistan a must-see destination!
