Minar-e-Pakistan is a tall minaret in Iqbal Park Lahore, built in commemoration of the Pakistan Resolution. The minaret reflects a blend of Mughal and modern architecture, and is constructed on the site where on March 23, 1940, seven years before the formation of Pakistan, the Muslim League passed the Pakistan Resolution (Qarardad-e-Pakistan), demanding the creation of Pakistan.[1] This was the first official declaration to establish a separate homeland for the Muslims living in the South Asia.[2] Pakistan now celebrates this day as a national holiday each year.
The monument attracts visitors from all over Pakistan, as well as the inhabitants of the Walled City of Lahore. The large public space around the monument is commonly used for political and public meetings, whereas Iqbal Park area is popular among kite-flyers.

When I arrived in Kalam, which is 6800 meter above the sea level, it was about to rain,. Having that kind of altitude, raining can create a very chilly weather even in June. But for Pakistani people rainy season is considered as good season.
Kalam is situated in NWFP region, in the Swat Valley. A very beautiful place.
Pakistan is one of the friendliest countries I have ever experienced, although, due to the role of women, the encounters I had were only among other men. As there are so few foreigners there, people are extremely curious about we outlanders.
