Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium

More national obsession than national sport, cricket is huge in Pakistan. And there's no better way to have an authentic Pakistani experience than to join the crowd at the cricket stadium and cheer for the local team. You can catch international matches at the Rawalpindi Stadium for an entertaining day out.

Bars & Nightlife

Alcoholic beverages are officially forbidden for Muslims (who make up roughly 97% of the population) in Pakistan, and as such, there are no places that could really be called "bars". However, visiting foreigners are allowed to order and consume alcohol at restaurants and hotels, so travelers hoping to have a drink in the evening in Islamabad will do best by visiting the restaurant in one of the luxury hotels in town. Other entertainment is available in the form of cinema and other cultural activities.
