About Pakistan

Pakistan is a South Asian country that borders with Afghanistan and Iran to the west, China to the north, and India to the east. It boasts approximately 230 million people, making it one of the most populous countries.
Pakistan is a semi-presidential republic with four provinces: Punjab, Sindh, Baluchistan, and Islamabad. The capital is Islamabad, while Karachi is the largest city, followed by Lahore, Hyderabad, Multan, and Peshawar.
Urdu and English are the official languages in Pakistan, with additional languages including Hindi, Punjabi, Sindhi, Saraiki, Pashto, and Balochi. The currency in Pakistan is the Pakistani Rupee. The majority of the population is Muslim (97%), with Christians (1.5%) and Hindus (1.5%)being religious minorities.
The Pakistani economy is based primarily on agriculture, with a growing industrial sector, particularly in textiles. Pakistan also exports cotton and grains. Pakistan's most important trading partners are the United States, United Arab Emirates, China, and Afghanistan, importing machinery, chemicals, oil, petroleum, and motor vehicles.

Pakistan generally experiences a hot and arid climate, with variations due to geographic conditions. Temperatures can reach around 46 degrees Celsius in the plains during June and drop to 4-5 degrees Celsius in January and February, especially in mountainous terrains. Therefore, the best times to travel are spring and autumn, despite regional climate differences.
Significant days in Pakistan include Republic Day, Ashura, March 23rd (Pakistan Day), August 14th (Independence Day), Eid al-Adha, Eid al-Fitr and Christmas.
Pakistan's cuisine, which shares commonalities with Indian cuisine, is rich and diverse. Meat, vegetables, legumes, bread, and rice are staples, and spices are heavily involved. Rice frequently accompanies meals. Notable dishes include chapati, paratha, puri, chicken korma, balti masala, and zarda pilaf.
