You can read a lot aboit quetta in this .

As for people , all ethnicities live here . Pashto, hazara, baloch , punjabi , sindhi but the majority here is pashtun .
People are generally fair skinned , tall and healthy .
We've certain minorities too , like hindus, Sikh and christians . You'll find people of quetta generally simple, , brave , chilled and hospitable. But yes , the environment isn't that liberal as you'll expect in punjab and karachi . Like walking bazaars here without daupatta on head is not common and people are mainly religious and 'gherat mand ' .

It's same for balochistan. Some areas are populated by Pashtuns , some by baloch and some by sindhis . Over all it is a diverse province .
It has both mountains , valleys , agriculture , deserts and scenic beauty .

You would love it visiting it . Just like kpk mountains are famous for their green beauty , balochistan mountains are famous for their unique shapes .
Only ever met one person from Quetta in UK nearly a decade ago a young Hazara teenager who was a very talented boxer. Too many Punjabis, Potwaris, Kashmiris and a sizeable Pashtun population in UK. Small community of Sindis and Hindkowans. Hardly come across any people from Balochestan.

Quetta residents on Saturday celebrated the city's first snowfall for the winter.

The city had received snowfall late Friday night, which continued through Saturday morning and afternoon, turning the weather in the city even chillier.

With mountains surrounding the city blanketed in snow, jubilant residents headed to various picnic spots in and around the city.

A large number of citizens thronged Hanna Lake to enjoy the pleasant weather.

"We really enjoy snowfall here", Muhammad Akram, a local, told DawnNews.

Faiz Kakar, chief of the International Union for Conservation of Nature, Balochistan, said he thinks the snowfall is a good omen and will reduce the impact of drought in Quetta and other parts of Balochistan.
