A remote controlled bomb exploded near a police checkpoint on the outskirts of Peshawar City. Media report one policeman has been injured.
The bombing came only a day after a suicide bomber blew himself in Islamabad.
Militants have killed hundreds of people in bombings since a security offensive was launched by the government two months ago.
The violence comes after United States President Barack Obama announced a dramatic escalation in the war in Afghanistan.
Pakistani officials fear this move could push more militants across its borders.
