Islamabad - Pakistan


 Asia-Pakistan-Islamabad
This is the capital of Pakistan and my point of entry for the tour of Pakistan . I had enjoyed my brief visit for a few days to Peshawar in 2006. So 18 years ago , how time flies. Islamabad is a relatively modern city and enjoyed the time here . Everyone very friendly and certainly at low prices compared to Europe. 


My first visit to the Post office was sort of a shock . The building itself was in need of a good clean both inside and out. I did visit the small Philatelic Bureau but most of the stamps were low value. I did go to the main Post office counter for stamps but they had even lower value stamps. I guess most international mail had meter stamps on the outside. So as you can see here this Postcard has 6 stamps.. This was a low number compared what I had in visits to some of the other cities.
