Travel Thursday!

Have you ever considered exotic Pakistan as a destination? No? Let’s change that!

“New Horizons: Pakistan” from our friends at Pan Am sometime in the 1960s.

The film was made prior to the separation of East Pakistan into the nation of Bangladesh in the early 1970s, but primarily concentrates on West Pakistan.

Others prefer boating or deep-sea fishing on the Arabian Sea, or visits to the Khyber Pass or Himalayas.

I bet it was a lot easier to bring home a little souvenir from the Khyber Pass back then, too.

Bonus: “Flying with the KLM from Amsterdam to Paris in 1929 in color!” As I understand it from the YouTube description, this is originally from 1929, but the poster (Rick88888888) has done a lot of work: “motion-stabilized, speed-corrected, A.I. enhanced and A.I. colorized”.
