A foot brifge on near Peshawar, Pakistan.

Meet people by shaking hands (not necessary for female foreiners). Tipping averages between 10 to 20% of the bill depending upon the service.

Lady travellers should avoid travelling in shorts or any other brief outfits. Try to get a 'Shalwar Kamiz' (local dress).

If you visit a place, take some candies for kids and the people will love you for this.
