The best city!
Born in Rawalpindi, raised their for 18 years and now I'm in the States to complete my bachelor's degree but I dearly miss my city. Mediumly large town providing you with all the facilities that a good town can offer! Army has contributed to good quality housing and roads and most of all it has grew modern and large over time. It has the charm, life and lights at night, such spirit that its sister city Islamabad doesn't offer! I'm patriotic about my country and city! love you Pakistan and miss you Rawalpindi! :)

i have 4 more friends and we are already doing some small one-off helps to different poor people in pindi.

but we could do it on a broader scale we can make a difference.
— Atiq khan, September 3, 2010

lets do it.
if we make a contribution of just 50 dollars each and we are around 10,000 than we can start one project every month. i offer my services for this and i would ask my pindi mates to join me if we want to bring some change in our beautiful city. i think we need children parks all over pindi. we need good play grounds, we need a good library, we need an big shelter for the poor people, we need to educate our poor pindi walls specially girls as they are our mothers sisters and daughters, we need more plants in pindi, we need more beauty, so please if you are interested plz come forward, we all will make it possible. for transparency once we are together we will discuss the methods of doing this.lets join hands . with love and care. atiq khan
— atiqkhan, September 3, 2010

i will always remember you pindi.
dear countrymen, i borned in pindi in 1970 and i spent my whole life in there till 2009 and now i am in syria and i miss my city so much. i am living with family but i dont discuss it with my wife and kids and there is something about pindi which i can feel only- that typical pindi style of life full of joy and happiness and loving people. i cry alone to recall my pindi. thats simple way of living. on fridays i remember how people were getting prepared for the jumma prayers. the safest city in pakistan is perhaps is pindi. no violance no rites no target killing no vulgarity but there is something about pindi which you can know if you are in pindi. i invite my pindi fellows to lets make an welfare organization at our own and lets make our city one of the best in the world. contact me for more details. your pindi fellow. atiq khan at atiqkhan301@live.com

my friend from pindi
i had; but i never expected to cross the limit; and i would not do that so; here in my life i have to do something before i sleep finally. i have never seen rawalpindi but i can paint in my mind with enormous colors with beautiful flavors. i can feel the streets of that city where he walked; i can sense the school and colleges where he studied; many unsaid things happend to me without his concern; here in this desert land in the middle east; we are working together; i am a poet deep inside but an unfortunate engineer.....also in 1971 i was a 2 years old child; and i am from bangladesh. i have never seen a person like him in my life; never ever. may god bless our friendship; i have many plans to do something in this life and would like to worth our friendship. i also would like to visit there. some relationship should better left unsaid. that's all i can say from a beautiful man of a beautiful city.

my friend from pindi
never been to rawalpindi but a strange thing happend with a person from pindi; regardless of age, sex, country barriers, even difficult to explain or expose whether it's love or not? it's beyond that; completely submerged with my immaculate feelings which is difficult to explain in words; never expected that it would happen in this scorching reality; but it happened; whatever i deserved from the Almighty,

Sweet memories of pindi
Rawalpindi is my home town. I lived in Dhok Ratta, mohallah Captain sahib.Studied in Cantt public school haider road and than in Gordon College Rawalpindi for FiSc before leaving for UET Lahore.I remembered pindi as a very good city. I used to travel by foot to my school and college. Very small traffic on the roads and I enjoyed travelling by foot. In the after noon Saddar was very good place to visit with the friends.

Missing Rawalpindi
I am living in France. At this time I was missing my city, Rawalpindi. I tried to search out that weather there are some pictures of my city to see them and satisfy my self. I found this website. It is realy very nice to know that someone has established such superbe website that speaks about the Rawalpindi city and its surroundings. Here the Europeans have promoted much their culture and history and attracted a lots of tourists. Pakistan has more rich culture and history in many aspects (we have the oldest cities, highest mountain range etc) but we have not promoted them. This is a very good effort for this purpose.

Rawalpindi Tourist Attractions
awalpindi is one of the major cities in Pakistan and should form and indispensable part of your tour to Pakistan.

Murree Brewery
U mention 'KFC' and 'Chenone' as icons of RWP!! Well done. U have done great justice by not mentioning/ picturizing the world famous Murree Brewery, the oldest commercial establishment of the subcontinent, situated in RWP! Hats off to the pure of the pure land!!!

Very Bad!
Rawalpindi is a beautiful city, but the pictures presented here, do not reflect the true beautiful image of the city. Most of the pictures are of low resolution. Many beautiful points have not been included in the pictures. Ammaar Malik, Abdul Qayyum.Rawalpindi. 1/Feb/2007.
— prof:abdul qayyum, February 1, 2007

I really enjoyed after seen these sum amazing pics from one of the lovely city of pakistan. gud work keep it up...
— Sami, January 9, 2007

Rawalpindi was one of my favourite places to photograph, and I've been hunting for other enthusiasts to share my images with. So please visit http://www.pbase.com/sethlazar/rawalpindi to see my pictures--mostly portraits taken in Rajah Bazaar and Fowara Chowk, but also images of the truck painting yards along railway workshop road. Thanks!

i think its westrige.....
salam miss khan, if i am not wrong, i think those houses are of westrige area. thats another thing i havent been there since 1997. But I would say that there is no doubt that its impossible to forget Pakistan and specially the city like rawalpindi.... Thanks, Bilal (Toronto)
— Bilal, December 6, 2006

Question
Salaam and hi everyone Does anyone know where those houses are? I mean, on what road? Not the apartments but the white cozy attached houses with gates?

I love all the pics of Pakistan on this site. I haven´t been to Pakistan since 2003 and I´m getting totally depressed without it. Every trip to my lovely Pakistan makes me humble and freshens up my soul, it´s amazing. I live in Stockholm, Sweden and it´s sooooooooo boring! Don´t get me wrong, I love Swe too since I was born here but......it can be really hard sometimes when you don´t feel accepted even if you know every code of the culture and speak the language fluently. Pakistan has this amazing air to it that just makes everybody feel welcome, it´s in the soul of the country.

Anyway....great job done on this site! Can you please post pics of Westridge too?

Wassalaam to all of you, miss Khan in Swe.
— Miss Khan, November 30, 2006

It is good to show the better part but all must think and decide how to overcome the increasing traffic jams in pindi, special need is to construct a second or alternative link between pindi and Islamabad, as Murree and Rawal roads become too crowded in peak hours. do think about Murir Chowk.

Nice Pictures
Hi,

I'm a UK born Pakistani and have lived in England all my life. In Pakistan, my parents are from a village called 'Darkali Sher Shahi' which is about a 10 minute drive from 'Kallar Syedan'. I would really appreciate if you could post some pictures from Kallar Syedan and other surrounding areas. Also, it would be really useful to have a fourm/chat channel where other members from Rawalpindi can interact and share experienced. A good effort anyway.

— Mohammed Ali Ramzan, September 14, 2005

It was great to find this website. I was born in Pindi and lived in the area up to the age of 19. I left in 1956 and have never been back but I constantly think of the happiest time of my life and would love to re-visit the place although I know there have been enormous changes over the past 50 years.

Nice to see the old Plaza cinema is still standing, brings back memories of seeing the night show without my parents' knowing. We lived on The Mall not far from Flashmans Hotel.

— Abdullah, August 11, 2005

Maureen, what takes you to Pindi? a lot of what you experience would depend on what capacity you are there in. Wearing jeans you might be the odd person out. wear the traditional garb, and you will fit in more (shalwar kameez). if it's a foreign woman, folks are generally quite friendly, especially if the female had blonde hair :) since that is an anomoly. what else can i tell you? let me know if you have specific questions i can help with.
