Gasherbrum IV is the 17th highest mountain on Earth and the 6th highest in Pakistan. It is one of the peaks in the Gasherbrum massif.
The Gasherbrums are a remote group of peaks located at the northeastern end of the Baltoro Glacier in the Karakoram range of the Himalaya. The massif contains three of the world's 8,000 metre peaks (if one includes Broad Peak). Gasherbrum is often claimed to mean "Shining Wall", presumably a reference to the highly visible west face of Gasherbrum IV; but in fact, it comes from "rgasha" (beautiful) and "brum" (mountain) in Balti, hence it actually means "beautiful mountain
At sunset on the India/Pakistan border every evening they hold a ceremony where soldiers in ceremonial uniforms on each side face up to each other and march with very high kicks to great support from the locals. It's an incredible thing to see!

I met Arslan in a gym and he told me he has just completed his high school and will be heading for the University soon. He loves to be photographed and this is one of my favourites that I want to share in flickr.
Shogran is a hill station situated on a green plateau in the Kaghan Valley, northern Pakistan at a height of 2,362 metres above sea level. It is located in the province of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
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.

Pakistan is home to 108 peaks above 7,000 metres and 4555[1] above 6,000 m. There is no count of the peaks above 5,000 and 4,000 m. Five of the 14 highest independent peaks in the world (the eight-thousanders) are in Pakistan (four of which lie in the surroundings of Concordia; the confluence of Baltoro Glacier and Godwin Austen Glacier). Most of the highest peaks in Pakistan lie in the Karakoram mountain range (which lies almost entirely in the Gilgit–Baltistan region of Pakistan, and is considered to be a part of the greater Himalayan range) but some peaks above 7,000 m are included in the Himalayan and Hindu Kush ranges. Moreover, Pakistan is home to over 7,000 glaciers, more than anywhere except the polar regions.
GOOD BYE 2014
2014 is ending with some sweet and bitter memories. Tomorrow we will give warm welcome to upcoming year.
Minar-e-Pakistan is a tall monumental minaret in Iqbal Park Lahore, built in commemoration of the Lahore 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.
