ReplyDeleteDear Baili, this is such a great post and so very interesting. Thank you for taking time to share this introduction to your homeland. I have enjoyed your words and the photographs and images.The costumes are all so colourful, and lovely to see the cities and mountains too.
ReplyDeleteWishing you a pleasant and enjoyable weekend
My good wishes
All the best Jan
That is so interesting, I would love to know more about your country, maybe you will write a post about Pakistan food?☺
ReplyDeleteAll very interesting and wonderful to know about your country.
ReplyDeleteI have heard about the tribal areas from a friend in Lahore some years ago.
What spectacular mountain scenery! And I like all the photos of traditional dress too -- so colourful! We have lots of people in Canada who come from Pakistan. One TV station broadcasts hockey games in Punjabi which gets good ratings -- a perfect blend of two cultures!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the wonderful post.
ReplyDeleteThough I have done a little reading about Pakistan it is always nice, as well as informative to hear directly from a nation's citizen.
We have a local restaurant near me that serves Pakistani cuisine. I have no idea if it is authentic but it is delicious.
Those pictures are breathtaking!
This is a wonderful post. Thank you so much for telling me about your country. It was so interesting!
ReplyDeleteYou have beautiful mountains and lakes.
ReplyDeleteThank you, you are an excellent tour guide.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the tour of Pakistan. It was enlightening.

Hi Baili - thank you for coming over and commenting - this post is great - it gives us maps explaining where all the areas are, you've shown us some of the magnificent view points (lovely ones!), and given us a tiny amount of history ... and stunning people to see. Love the photo of your family in the sidebar ... thanks so much - cheers Hilary
ReplyDeleteThsnk you for visiting my site today. Pakistan, through your description Baili, is no longer "a foreign country" to me. Thank you for sharing colorful pictures and visual wording to show me your beautiful homeland. I grew up in an area with four distinct seasons, winter offering its own harshness and pleasures.
ReplyDeleteI so enjoyed reading and learning about your homeland.Fantastic photos too, and thank you for visiting my web page. Peace and light to you.
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful! The photos are great! Very interesting to read about all the history. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful. In 1972 I visited your beautiful country. We came in via the Wagha border and left via the Khyber Pass.
ReplyDeleteThank you for taking the time to share so much about your country! I loved the mountain lakes and the gorgeous mountain pictures. So intriguing about the lifestyle differences in the different parts of Pakistan. I really learned so much about your beautiful country in this post, thank you for taking the time to share with us! Hugs to you today!
ReplyDeleteDear Baili – Thanks for this photo tour and your explanation. How beautiful your homeland is! I think I understand how much you’re proud of your country. K2 stands divine and I like to see traditional clothes which differ from region to region. One of the things I like but you didn’t touch here is Pakistani rugs. They are exquisitely beautiful.
ReplyDeleteYoko
interesting! Thank you for sharing!
ReplyDeleteNice to know about your homeland...
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your lovely photos. I loved looking at them all.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely post. Your photos are very interesting and I have always been quite interested in Pakistan but yet, I lack muck knowledge about your country. I didn't realize you had so many large and beautifu cities. They are lovely to look at but I love the mountains and the gorgeous terraced gardens. It is truly a fascinating country and the people very good looking. I get my shilajit from Pakistan and it's a wonderful product to take.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the great tour of your country.
Thank you, Bali, for sharing a lot of information about your country and its people.
ReplyDeleteThis was a wonderful post, Baili! I thoroughly enjoyed it. Were I still teaching, I would have shared it with my students. In the USA Pakistan is associated with too many negative things which is very sad. Your country is beautiful and varied, and has a rich history and culture. People everywhere are proud of their homelands and traditions and cherish their identity. Your blog is important because you are teaching people how we are much more alike than different. Thank you, dear friend!
ReplyDeleteVery interesting to read about all the history.
