"Please come visit us and spend money". "We have less terrorism now".
I cant wait.
Yeah, I dont see a problem? We as a country are progressing, and we are distancing ourselves from the past more and more everyday. You havent seen the stats clearly. Pakistan has many many many issues but it is a functioning country and safety is not one of them (atleast anymore) its doing much better than other countries in its league such as Somalia, Nigeria and other African countries, even many South American countries too.
And atleast we don't have random phsycopaths killing 10+ people every other week because they were having a "bad day" LOL Indianopolis, Las vegas, San jose, Atlanta, Colorado, Miami,
The term "underrated" simply means it's it not valued highly enough. Maybe, but that's because the bar is set really really low for Pakistan due to a number of factors - terrorism, poverty, corruption, etc. It get's bad press, but these issues, although maybe exaggerated, do exist.
So yeah, underrated it is, that doesn't mean it's still not a crap hole.
Underrated/Overrated are fairly ambiguous terms. They just mean that something is getting less or more praise than it deserves. Of course, “deserve” here is defined by the individual making the statement.
Context is key. I think Pakistan is underrated and India is overrated. Tourists get scammed and ripped off left and right in India; many vloggers report that businesses won´t take their money in Pakistan. Muslim hospitality is the real deal.
That being said, I´m sure some of the people commenting on here about how they´d never go to Pakistan probably wouldn´t go to large parts of the developing world any damn way.
If I go to Pakistan one day, great. But there are a whole lot of countries in front of it on the list for me.

The americans in this thread wont like this even though its true, americans are huge fans of India as many Americans are anti muslim.
to the americans, show one video where an vlogger in india tries to pay for his meal, and the resturant owner gives the meal for free? its commonplace in pakistan.
Shows the kindness of Pakistanis. Even though they are in poverty and would never let an oppurtuinty to gain money go to waste, they welcome the stranger from abroad and give the meal for free even when they know they will take a loss. I have seen Americans or other foreginers get invited for tea in Pakistan aswell.
Show me any examples in india please and I am waiting.
Disco hopping and Shah Cola in Tehran, maybe..Islamabad? Never say never, but it certainly seems to be lacking in the wine, women, and song category...but so is Wyoming, lol.

Spot on. Pakistan is a unique country because it’s located in such a strategic location. Think of it this way. Pakistan’s Gwadar is a Middle Eastern city. 60 years ago Gwadar was a part of Oman. Then you have Peshawar and Quetta which are Central Asian cities. The capital is both central Asian and south Asian. Lahore and Karachi are South Asian cities. So in conclusion, Pakistan has 3 regions that’s in it. It also has the 5th most people in the world. Over 60 languages are spoken in Pakistan. All of these factors will always make Pakistan unique and underrated.
Prior to the contrary, Pakistan is actually very safe. There are many Westerners in Pakistan living a great life. You can ask them if they feel safe.
Pakistan and America actually have a lot of similarities.
On the other hand, India is very overrated and overcrowded.
One more thing: Nothing beats Pakstani hospitality.

This is another misleading statement.
No country on Earth has suffered more from this menace than Pakistan.
Did you know? The largest Christianity cross of Asia is actually located in Pak.
What do you really know about Pakistan? Seems like the Indians have fooled you.
Well, I did thoroughly enjoy my time in India. I like Pakistani food (and food in general from the region). But I see no reason to travel there.
There is also a terrorism problem there, which I am keen to avoid.
