There was a time when our President could give a little slap on the face of the US President..

The khabarnama of Pakistan were so peaceful, there was no back ground annoying sounds or musics in news those days. But now if we watch todays news it seems like as if we are watching a scene of war. It seems as if we are sitting in war zone instead of sitting in our couch. Todays khabarnama really gives me headache, unnecessary noises and musics that they embed on the news is really awful
And look at their tone and language, totally peaceful and polite. And look at the female news anchor, she has dupata on her head, shows/dramas/films/ads all use to depict and represents our culture. But now todays Pakistan is totally void of such sharafat, and instead of promoting and showing our culture, our current soldout media is showing indian culture and all those pathetic things which are not even part of our culture................MAN i want my old Pakistan back

literally even those saying of new pakistan should actually say old pakistan i mean that of 50's and 60's...these pictures made me cry and too emotional, although i try my level best but still cannot hold on to it....

Queen Elizabeth Ii - Royal Tour To Pakistan - 1961

The Queen has travelled more than any other Sovereign in history. During her reign, her overseas visits have helped strengthen diplomatic bonds between the United Kingdom and other countries.

Her Majesty currently undertakes one or two overseas visits each year, accompanied by The Duke of Edinburgh. She is supported in her official role by other members of the Royal Family who regularly tour the realms (Commonwealth countries which have The Queen as their Head of State) and member countries of the Commonwealth on her behalf.

Her Majesty's first official overseas visit was to South Africa in 1947. Since then, overseas visits have become one of her most important duties. During her reign, The Queen has visited more than 60 foreign governments.

Absolutely Stunning Pictures.

It had blown my mind away, to see Pakistan before 90s.

The famous Khyber Steam Safari Train which followed a serpentine track know as the “iron horse” amidst the rugged Tatara mountains in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa .
To Landi Kotal, which took travelers through the Khyber Pass.

Stunned pic, I am envy now that there is no thread like on India.

Nothing particularly amazing, honestly. I've been to southern Italy, which is considered to be quite bad by European standards, and it was still nicer than Pakistan in the 60s and 70s...
Cannot sugarcoat it.
