 The Sahara Group, set up by young people, was recently in Pakistan on an educational and cultural awareness tour. The team visited various cities in Pakistan as well as areas affected by the recent earthquake, where they distributed aid. The tour was to raise awareness of the culture and heritage of Pakistan and to feel the way of life in different parts of the country and especially the disastrous earthquake that hit Northern Pakistan in October 2005. The tour started in Karachi spending 4 nights where a visit to the Qaida Azam museleum was one of the highlights. The group spent a night in Islamabad visiting Failsal Mosque, then to Lahore for 4 nights to see the historic monuments, Shalamar gardens and Wagah border post. The group then returned to Islamabad to head for the earthquake-affected city of Muzaffarabad in Azad Kashmir. See the photo album.
