I would say instead of posting pictures anyone can google, users should try to post pictures taken by themselves. I believe most of us must have visited Islamabad and Muree at least and I for one am more interested in capturing natural beauty instead of taking pictures of people. So i'll start posting from tomorrow inshaAllah and i would like people to chip in.

You are right but it's not easy to go all such places. Besides they are present all over the internet and here you can view all of them in at one place. Frankly i came to know about many of these places after viewing this thread. So in a sense it is a good introductory thread for even Pakistanis.

However your idea is not bad. Looking forward to you input.
