Ever wanted to have a map of Pakistan but with all the places you can go visit on it? Now there is one.

Graphic designer and artist Assam has created a handy (and beautiful) tourism map of Pakistan that you can reference to plan your next road trip. You can see it in hi-res here.

The map features highways and road networks connecting major cities and tourist attractions nationwide.

Describing his map, Assam says, “Being a traveller when ever I visit other countries, [the] first thing I search for is a tourist map. And when I was looking for [a] Pakistan tourist map I found nothing helpful or interesting, so I decided to take the initiative and it took eight consecutive days to create this high resolution Pakistan Tourist Attraction Map which represents overall beauty of Pakistan.”

“Since my childhood to adult age I had been hearing from general people about my country Pakistan, that it has huge potential, including five kind[s] of weathers, six kind[s] of beaches, agricultural lands, highest mountains, roof of the world, oldest civilisation, all the minerals and resources, heritage and different cultures.”

“So I decided to create a picture of those voices to showcase Pakistan to the world, what we actually have and how many undiscovered areas we still have to explore.”

“Since last year, our visa policy has been change[d] and we are visa free for many countries and for others we have on arrival visa plus e-visa service as well and tourist[s] are finally come back to our countries after many struggling years.”

Assam, who has travelled extensively himself, has also added helpful notes to the map indicating similarities with other countries. “I hope this map can help many travel lovers like me.”
