Islamabad: Discover the Other Side of Pakistan's Charm

From Afghanistan to Islamabad ✨ Torkham border recently reopened! Chinese citizens can enjoy VIP treatment just by identifying themselves — no queuing! 😎 Exiting Afghanistan was smooth, but entering Pakistan was crowded. Yet Chinese travelers receive panda-level treatment 🐼 — escorted by staff all the way to transportation! 💡 Porter services for luggage (100-200 PKR) are totally worth it! 🇵🇰 Islamabad One-Day Tour: 📍 Pakistan Monument 🏛️ Located on a hill — navigate to “Pakistan Monument Museum” to avoid wrong pins. Free entry to the monument; museum ticket 🎫 1000 PKR. 📍 Shah Faisal Masjid 🕌 A must-visit mosque — grand and free! Remove shoes before entering (avoid white socks 😅). Even veiled local women asked for photos — after shooting, she got scared realizing her kid had run off to play 😂 📍 Daman-e-Koh 🌄 A hillside park with stunning city views — perfect for sunset! 🌇 Try therestaurant The Dome for dinner — great outdoor vibe! (Yes, more photo requests while eating… 📸) 📍 Em En Cafe 🍰 A popular café with pink dreamy décor — delicious desserts & drinks! ☕ From Afghanistan to Pakistan — the contrast is huge! Better infrastructure, faster internet — it’s like returning to the “modern world” 🏙️. Women dress more freely here — you can almost feel the relief. You can even travel overland from Islamabad to China via Khunjerab Pass 🚗… but be warned: It’s a 20-hour car ride to Sost — not for the faint of iron butts! 😂 Only try it if you’re ready to earn a “suffering-for-no-reason” life experience 💆🏻‍♀️ #JustGo #TravelEditor #ArchitectureLovers #TravelLikeAnAnthropologist #Pakistan #OffTheBeatenPath #FollowYourCuriosity 🌍✨🧳
