Where to say from ?As a matter of fact ,I think just more than wonderful of these excellent thread! 3X for sharing ,my dearest Pakistan buddies!
In Chinese's eyes, Pakistan,undoubtedly, one of our most important and closest friends in the world! Take myself as example, during my undergraduate, I had 4 Pakistan classmates and friends in my class! To be true ,your photos seems to me to link them with the wonderful time I used to own during past 4 years with my Pakistan classmates!Just miss them! Time will go with waiting ,while the perishable memory in our mind will go for ever!
Move,dear Pakistan!!! Chinese people will be back u with true heart!!

It would really need much more density to get a feeling of urbanity.

Its a very new city. It was carved out of the forest sometime in the sixties (corect me if I'm wrong) to serve as the capital of the nation. Its more of an administrative city than a commercial one. Can be called the Washington DC of Pakistan.

It is quite true that China has been in all sense a true friend to countries like Pakistan & Bangladesh. Bangladesh may have had issues with Pakistan in the past but now Pakistan, Bangladesh & China are allies and we must help each other out if we all want to proceed forward. Indeed- Bangladesh and Pakistan have not only diplomatic but also military alliances with China.(Please don't get political about my statement

) Long live Pakistan, Long live China & Long live Bangladesh!

Nice view of the hills and Faisal Mosque from a different perspective...ie. NOT from Daman e Koh.

MacDonalds did a nice job on the park in F9 Islamabad

The new Law Courts (Kacheri) moved from F8 to G10
