Given the new regime of easy visas etc I have often wondered that I were given a chance to visit Pakistan ( & I could afford it) , what all would I like to do / see.
I have listed some below , these are in random order.
1. Visit places I have heard my family members speak of where they lived at different times - Quetta, Nowshera, DI Khan, DG khan, Kohat , Bannu. Have pictures of old houses in the cantt. Wonder if those houses still remain.
2 . Places where some relatives ( post marriage) came from - Gujar Khan.
3. Khyber / Bolan Pass - the history of the sub continent was impacted by what came through or did not come through these passes.
4. Lahore fort, town, Nankana Sahab & other Sikh & Hindu shrines. Also Multan - the city of shrines.
5. Eat - every conceivable type of Chicken / mutton dish that's on offer. Not to mention breads.
6. Travel in Pak trains - anywhere to anywhere.
7. Watch Pak theater - plays .
8. Spend as much time possible / permissible in old libraries.
9 . Shop for onyx and the endless list I would be naturally be given.
10. Meet people - just sit in coffee houses or similar places and talk - get to know them.
The wish list could understandably be endless .. if only I can.
Wonder what others would like to do in India / Pakistan.
