Pakistan Travel Reference Map 1:1,2M 3rd Edition - 2025

Pakistan was created out of the dismemberment of British India as a sanctuary for Muslims displaced by sectional fighting in the immediate post-WW2 era. Relations between India and Pakistan have been testy ever since, although the passage of time has made both countries aware that they need each other. That said, Pakistan is a lovely country to visit and explore. Side 1 concentrates on the southern portion of the country and includes an inset of the main city, Karachi. The south also shares long border areas with Iran, Afghanistan, and India, small portions of which are included. We have updated the road network to show recently completed motorway-like roads. The northern portion fills Side 2, continuing the long border with Afghanistan and the ill-defined borders with China and India. There is much to see in this part of Pakistan, such as the city of Quetta in the west, Islamabad, the capital, ancient Lahore, and the Hunza Valley, all of which are noted in our Top Attractions list. The north is truly adventuresome travel, and it is possible to drive the fabulous Karakoram Highway towards China, one of the most amazing road trips anywhere. However, although the contested Kashmir region is shown on the map (because it’s there), visitors need to be aware that this is a volatile part of the world and should avoid it. This is a country that is much less visited than it should be.
