Although it is not the capital of Pakistan, Karachi is without doubt the main commercial city in Pakistan. I lived there for almost six years and during that time I discovered that at lot of the negative publicity that Pakistan receives is unfounded. There are many things to see and do in this city, whether passing through or living here. Possibly the most fascinating museum is the mausoleum to Jinnah, the founder of modern day Pakistan. I would also highly recommend arranging a visit to French beach at night to see the giant sea turtles nesting. Another great place to join or visit is the yacht club which is left over from colonial times. Another fun activity is to go crab fishing in Karachi bay, where you can enjoy lovely food, weather and bring your own alcohol in coolers.
Advantages: food readily available any time of day/night, theres always something happening Disadvantages: pollution, noise
...been a tad bit difficult.
Karachi is renowned for its people, its food and the number of flats its got. Its relatively friendlier than other places in Pakistan and is more advanced when it comes to education and technological standards than any other city in Pakistan.
Its a coastal city with some very popular tourist spots espcially Sea View; a LONG stretch of road next to the sea being people's favourite. The food, the atmosphere, the cricket ...

Advantages: It's a fun, relaxing place to visit; with alot of culture and history running through it. Disadvantages: Its a high-security area, and is home to alot of terrorise bombings and attacks.
I have been to Karachi numerous times on account of visiting relativs. If your used to having fun, you'll find alot to do. Since karachi is home to alot of people, ranging from the utterly poor to the raging rich, the areas and districts in karachi are built and fitted with entertainment accordingly. If you are a rescue worker or on a help mission, visiting the shambles and poor areas of the city will warm your heart. The satisfaction of shaking ... ...parties, fashion-shows and dinners the karachi elite host almost everynight. If you're into food and eating out; karachi will definately not disappoint you. Its home to resteraunts specialising in thai, italian, chinese, japanese and lebanese cuisines amongst a million others. Also, there are alot of historical and cultural locations to visit. There is the Quaid's mausoleum, that is a beautifully built building with breathtaking gardens surrounding ...

Hyderabad, now part of India was initially a separate state when Pakistan was made. It did not actually belong to India or Pakistan. However, the city of Hyderabad is now a part of India.
Hyderabad Dhakan is well known for its accent, the Char Minar and its food.
Hyderabadi cuisine is loved throughout the Asian subcontinent. Food such as 'Kache gosh biriyani' (biriyani made of mutton that has been marinated in special spices before being cooked in the rice), 'Baghare baigan' (a slightly sour but hot curry made using aubergines), 'Pasanda' (mutton cooked in a special mild curry)and 'Khalaakhun' (a special sweet made using milk) originate from Hyderabad and each has its own special taste. These are to name but a few.
There is actually a place called Hyederabad colony, in Karachi, Pakistan, where Hyderabadi food is loved ...

Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of Air Arabia
Advantages: Very clean, great service, hotel is very nice Disadvantages: At times the hotel might be over crowded
or down.
The only problem I have with the hotel is that sometimes it may be over crowded. This depends on what time you go to this hotel as I went when there was a Pakistan cricket match in Karachi and had the teams staying at this hotel.
The rooms are absolutely great, clean and you won't be disappointed in this 5 star hotel. Every room has a safe, TV and minibar. The beds are very big and comfortable with the TV across the room.
If you do ever go to Karachi or any where in Pakistan look for the Pearl Continental as they are the best hotels in Pakistan. ...
