Destination Islamabad

Islamabad is a quiet place, which is surprising for a capital city. The streets are organised in a modern, grid pattern and there are peaceful parks and green spaces to enjoy everywhere. For a lively city with markets, noise and old-fashioned chaos, head to Rawalpindi which is only 15km away.

The weather and holidays in Islamabad

The hottest month of the year is June when the temperature averages 38°C. Monsoon season arrives in July. The best time to visit Islamabad is from November to April when the weather is milder. Pakistan public bank holidays include two or three days to mark the end of Ramadan, called Eid el Fitr, and a couple of days to celebrate Eid el Adzha. These dates vary each year.
