Taking the bus in Pakistan is a colorful adventure. In September 1986 I traveled the bumpy Karakorum mountain road from Rawalpindi to Gilgit. On road, I met a Canadian couple (Harry and Carrie) and we continued to travel all through Xinjiang, Tibet, and Nepal for over 9 months - sometimes on road, you meet people who become more than family.

From Wikipedia

 

HMS Rawalpindi was a British armed merchant cruiser, (a converted passenger ship employed as convoy escorts, as patrol vessels, and to enforce a blockade) that was sunk in a surface action against the German battleships Scharnhorst and Gneisenau during the first months of the Second World War. Her captain was Edward Coverley Kennedy.

We went to Peshawar to attend a research conference. A day well spent. We had our research and our poster to present. It was fun explaining our research. Our research was on adult ADHD.

 

This shot was taken on our way back from conference when we were headed back to Rawalpindi.

Have you ever thought of the twins with different ages.... I wonder why we call Rawalpindi a twin city with Islamabad. Hardly seperated by 15 KM and at many places less, actually they lie world apart. Islamabad has existed hardly for 50 years, where are Rawalpindi has existed for centuries, may be thousand of years.

 

Rawalpindi's charm lies in its traditional, somewhat chaotic subcontinental hustle and bustle atmosphere in its traffic-jammed mostly narrow streets, contrasting quite sharply with the tree-lined alleys, cleanliness and peace of Islamabad.

 

Rawalpindi does have much to offer for visitors. Specially when you enter the Old City Bazars, Like Bhabra Bazar, Purana Qilla, Bagh Sardaran, the centuries old building tell you the story of this wonderful city's life across the span of times.
