The streets and bazars of Peshawar in august 1990

Peshāwar (Pashto: پښور; Urdu:پشاور) literally means City on the Frontier in Persian and is known as Pai-khawar in Pashto. It is the provincial capital of Pakistan's North-West Frontier Province. Located on the edge of the Khyber Pass, Peshawar is the commercial, economic, political and cultural capital of the Pakistani frontier and, particularly, of the Pashtuns. In ancient times the city was known as Purushapura when it was officially founded by the Kushans. For much of its history, it was one of the main trading centers on the ancient Silk Road and was a major crossroads for various cultures between the subcontinent and Central Asia.

I love peshawar. The most beautiful city in the world. I love the people of Peshawar, I love every inch of the land of peshawar. Even I love the dusty paths and the gargage of Peshawar as it is my birth place and I have spent my childhood in this great city. But now I am too far from it. Would that i could kiss this land of fairy every morning, enjoy its romentic mornings, walk in the rain on the muddy paths of my village. LOVE YOU Peshawar. Zan mi darna Qurban...
