Bonjour from Peshawar, Great travel report, well written, profound reserach and excellent observation. I admire mon ami, the writing skills. Hospitality of the Peshawarites, old and famous, when we look at the history of the region, from the caravan sarai to story tellers'culture, it is an interesting city with a diversity of colors, that reflects the inner beauty of the city and its ...

It doesn't make much difference if one person feels safe in Peshawar and this doesn't necessarily mean that its safe,its absolutely dangerous due non stop bombing in these days. A bomb exploded yesterday which took about 15 lives and another bomb went off today (in Pushtakhara chowk Peshawar) where 12 innocent people lost their lives in( Pushtakhara Chowk) Peshawar. Under such circumstances ...

It's not necessary, you should follow him, he's just given his opnion, insights about Peshawar.

mountaintourism replied 1 month ago
This is not the real insight.

chitralguy replied 1 month ago
So you better post the real insights mon ami, while sitting in Chitral.

Not only me,people who are even sitting in Europe know about the insight story of Peshawar (as the insights of Peshawar re each & every TV channel in theses days).

chitralguy replied 1 month ago
That is a media report, they say Osama is sitting in Chitral, so that's not the insight story.

chitralguy replied 1 month ago
Insight story means, when you somewhere in person, feel and experience the things, that is the definition.

Bombing and killings re the real issues regarding tourism in Peshawar in particular and in Pakistan in general. This forum is to deliver & share information with tourists so we should tell the truth to the with out any self interests & benefits. If you want discuss eastern and western music, songs,Lata ji and Rafi ji then better go to booliwood and hooliwood moves sites.

Ignorance is Bliss:How appropriate a statement as I sit in Peshawar today. A Peshawari friend living in Islamabad stopped by today after visiting a friend in the hospital injured in Friday's bombing; yesterday's bomb that killed a dozen was 2.5 km from the house where I am living. Peshawar is fine? Lunacy! Tell that to the relatives of more than 300 dead in the past 6 weeks or the families of nearly 1000 wounded. Even my Afghani...

I would also agree with the statement of chitralguy. To know the reality of an area you must have to be there personaly otherwise it can be false. There is an English saying that "Seeing is believing". An insider gets the real picture of something happening in the area. Thanks Matt for you first-hand experienced travel report. It is much appreciated. All the best for your travels. Safe trip.
