Last year I took a vacation and spend 1 week in Lahore, Pakistan. Despite my friends and family’s protesting I went there as a solo female backpacker and to my surprise this trip was one of the safest trip I’ve ever been.

    I went to Wagah border and watched the Flag lowering ceremony from the Pakistani side. And when there were hundreds of tourists from the Indian side, I can say that I was the only tourist from the Pakistani side and it was very fun.

    I noticed one very important thing while traveling around Lahore: people adore taking pictures. They would stop me on the streets and ask me to take pictures of them. But man would never ever ask me to take picture with him, unless I had another male in a company. Then he would ask him for a permission.
