We spent a few days in Islamabad as we prepared (and recovered) from our trip north. While the city is not a primary point of interest, it is a good starting point for travelers in Pakistan, as you can ease your way into the culture with a more subtle start. Islamabad is green, organized and rather calm. Head over to its neighbour Rawalpindi for a more hectic experience. With bright colours, overcrowded markets and great street food.
