Pakistan is one of the most monumental, authentic and transformative travel frontiers on the planet. Located at the crossroads where southern, central and western Asia meet, this country displays a geography of epic proportions: where the tectonic plates collide, the most imposing walls of rock and ice on Earth rise, with infinite glaciers that feed the waters of the Indus River. To the south, fertile valleys give way to plains where humanity's oldest urban civilizations flourished and where Mughal emperors built mosques and palaces of white marble and red sandstone. But above its heavenly scale landscapes, what forever marks the traveler is the heart of its people: an overflowing, selfless and moving generosity where each stranger is received as a sacred guest to whom the doors of home are opened.
