One should be aware that Islamabad, the capital of Pakistan, is famed for its picturesque landscapes and carefully designed layout encircled by the majestic Margalla Hills which earns it the name of the second most beautiful capital of the world. It has a multicultural expat community and houses a range of international schools and leisure opportunities. For one considering to move to Islamabad, an insight of potential job prospects in their sector, a knowledge of available healthcare facilities and an understanding of public transportation options for moving around the city, is imperative. Additionally, it should also be known that Islamabad offers a reasonably high level of residential expenses. Not forgetting that Pakistan is a predominantly Muslim society, it is vitally important to familiarize yourself with the Islamic culture and its significance in daily affairs.

Islamabad is the capital of the country and was built and developed recently. Therefore, it is a little expensive to live in when compared with the rest of the cities. It is a relatively small city so transportation is accessible and easy. Traffic rules are strictly enforced and the city has the lowest crime rate in the country.

Islamabad is the capital of Pakistan and is known for its scenic beauty and breathtaking views. It comes in the list of “most-planned capitals” in the world. It is home to many lakes, mountains, parks, and caves. It is also known for its pleasant weather. That’s why many people commute to Islamabad daily, either for work purposes or leisure.

There can be traffic in work hours causing a delay. The public transit system is in place but is insufficient. The rents are high but cheaper places to reside are available at a little distance from the city center. Islamabad is picturesque with a lot of outdoor activities. The food is great and so is the ambiance.

Islamabad experiences less traffic jams. Islamabad is filled with greenery, It has proper sports facilities, It is one of the cleanest cities in Pakistan, Islamabad is a scenic city, people in Islamabad are very well off, at least from Pakistani standards. Even if they are not financially well off they still have a stable income from government jobs or if they are into some business their customers do have some disposable income.

he/she moves to one of the most beautiful capitals in the world and should expect some eye soothing scenes. Also, he/she will need to have a complete knowledge of transport system as one cannot live in the city without a conveyance. Best of luck to him/her.

Islamabad is the Federal Capital of Pakistan. The city was brought into being in 1960, and is one of the few cities of the world, for which a proper master-plan had been devised. It is one of the main global-hubs of the country as it has been exposed to many cultures of the world over the years. It’s a tranquil city unlike most other urban cities of the world, with less traffic and a clean, green environment. Property has become quite expensive in recent years here, so check your bank before moving in.

Kashif, says: 2020

Islamabad is enclosed by the mountains on two sides, third side is closed by Prime Minister’s residence while fourth side is expanding rapidly. While moving to Islamabad, you should remember that living is not cheap here. Houses alone cost a lot. You will find a lot of parks and schools spread across the city. The city has an efficient transportation system. Overall life is very comfortable here.
