Pakistan to Japan Motorcycle Tour S8 EP.01

Assalam o Alaikum everyone and welcome back to the channel from Motorway Bhera interchange on the way to Peshawar. After a long time, we are going to start our tour again. There is a gap of about 3-4 months. And this is the first time that such a big gap has come. There were some issues related to the motorcycle and some other minor issues. But Alhamdulillah, we have sorted out most of the issues. Now, we are finally ready for our next tour for which I am very excited. Ever since I started motorcycle riding, it has been my dream. You can also say that my passion for riding a motorcycle has always been to travel to Central Asia. I could not visit Central Asia during my first tour because of Covid, all the borders were closed. But now I have got a chance to explore Central Asia. So, let me tell you a little bit about my route. The starting point will be Lahore and the ending point will be Japan, Inshallah. We will go to Afghanistan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Russia, Mongolia, back to Russia and then to Vladivostok, a port city in Russia. From there, we will take a ferry to Korea, Inshallah. From Korea, we will take a ferry to Japan. We will explore Japan and then decide where to go after that. But for now, our final destination for this tour will be Japan, Inshallah. My plan is to reach Japan approximately within four months. Because it will be difficult to travel in winter. So, I will try to take a short break in between. Actually, the beauty of every region depends on its weather. For example, the weather in Japan might be beautiful in Spring and Autumn. In summer, it is very hot. In Central Asia... There is rush here as well. In Central Asia, you can travel well only in summer. Because it is difficult to travel in other seasons. And now, let me introduce you to a very good friend of mine and one of my favorite YouTubers in Pakistan. Bilal Asim; Being A Traveler. You must have seen many of his series. Even prior to joining YouTube, I had seen a lot of his videos. Kumrat's and Taobat's video was very popular. I also went to those areas after watching it. Bilal is also going to apply for his visa. He will tell about his plans in his own videos. I will put the link of his channel in the description of my video. Do check it out. Here stands our motorcycle, Rangeeli. We are taking it to Peshawar. Because it is very hot here. So I thought to utilize our truck for this task. We will start our ride from Peshawar. I wanted to avoid GT Road. I have taken care of all the issues that Rangeeli had and arranged spare parts as well. I hope Rangeeli will be able to accompany us in this tour. Bilal was about to fall. Because I have mentioned in this video that I am going to Peshawar. We will start our tour from there. We will cross the border of Afghanistan. Before crossing the border, we should have a visa and road permit. I can get it from Islamabad as well as Peshawar. However, every traveler I spoke with advised me to apply in Peshawar. There is less rush and you will get road permit and visa within 2-3 hours. I will tell you the process when I will apply there. For now, I have just submitted the online application. I will go there with the documents. I will get the visa from there and cross the border, next day, InshAllah. This is where we've stopped for a short while. We will have some food and leave from Bhera. Thank you Welcome to Peshawar. We reached here last night. Our main target this morning was to get visa from Afghan Consulate. Unfortunately, when I reached the consulate, they told me that it is closed due to holiday. So, our visa story will continue tomorrow. So, I decided to explore Peshawar today. I had planned to get the visa today and leave tomorrow morning. I am staying at 'Peshawar Services Club' in Cantt. It's a beautiful place. I don't know anyone here personally. But we met a very nice guy and a viewer, Dr. Umair. He booked this place for us when I was leaving from Lahore. Thank you very much, Umair. We are leaving for Peshawar now. I think this area is near Sadar or Old Peshawar. Let's see what we can explore today. At least, we will try the amazing food of Peshawar. I watch all his videos. Thank you very much. I watch all his videos to know about his current whereabouts. I watched his video and told that Rangeeli has left from Africa and reached Lahore. We are in your city now. We have Haji Ismail with us. We were passing by and stopped our car to explore the city. We are in Peshawar now. He has served us the famous Peshawar Green Tea. We are enjoying it. What is the name of this road? Ashraf Road. What is the name of the market? Ashraf Road. This is the main market of Peshawar. The famous Bala Hisar fort and City House Museum are in the vicinity. We are going to visit that. But for now, we'll just sit with Ismail and enjoy the green tea. And cherish the hospitality of Peshawar. We have reached the clock tower area of ​​Peshawar. There are many different markets here. It's a very lively area. Since this is the heart of Peshawar, I decided to show you the old Peshawar. You can see old historical buildings all around. There is a museum nearby. We are planning to visit that. And to visit some historical buildings. The 'Qissa Khawani' market is also nearby. These are the 3-4 places I want to visit. As soon as we left the main market, and entered the small alleys of the old town, the whole atmosphere changed. It was a peaceful and quiet area. Doesn't seem like we are just beside the noisy markets along the main road. You will see many historical buildings here. Old architecture everywhere. Some houses are in very good condition. They have just been renovated. People are living there. Some are in bad condition. As you can see, this is Sethi House. They were a wealthy family from Peshawar who built this house in 1884 or 1886. They used to go to different countries to trade. They would bring their favorite architecture with them. That's why you can see Islamic Central Asian architecture here. This place has a stunning wooden structure. Archaeological department has renovated this place. They charged 50 rupees for the ticket. But they charged 40,000 rupees for the video. So, I made a few clips with their permission. However, I couldn't do detailed recording inside. Just wanted to give you a glimpse of the architecture of this place. Assalam o Alaikum How are you? What's your name? I saw you in the car. Thank you so much. Would you like to eat something? I just want to see your city. Is there a market inside? I'm just going there. I'll go with you then. If a tourist comes to Peshawar from anywhere, there is a market that you can't miss in Peshawar. That is the 'Qissa Khwani Bazaar'. It is also called the Piccadilly of Central Asia. It used to be such a famous market. People used to come here for black and green tea. Storytellers used to tell stories here. You can still find black and green tea shops here. We are going to eat something. Then we will have tea from some nice place around. All across Pakistan, Peshawar's cuisine is renowned. I have never had a chance to try it before. But wherever you are living in Pakistan, you will find Shanwari Karahi and rice everywhere. Someone told me to go to Shobha Bazaar. There are famous rice shops like 'Lazeez' and 'Rehman'. But some of them were already sold out. Bilawal here is with us. We just met him here. He has brought us to 'Lazeez' rice shop, Shobha Bazaar. Shobha Bazaar is a market for cars and their spare parts. Let's try 'Lamb Rice' as I am very hungry. Had a rather light breakfast in the morning. This is 'Mahabat Khan Mosque.' The oldest and most historical mosque of Peshawar. It has a very unique architecture. I've been to a lot of mosques both overseas and in Pakistan. I have also been to Badshahi Mosque in Lahore, Wazir Khan Mosque Shah Jahan Mosque in Thatta. I was very impressed by these mosques. Similarly, you won't find this mosque's architecture elsewhere. Especially the beautiful and colorful paintings and flowers on the walls are very impressive. Unfortunately, the condition of some of the walls of mosques is compromised. They are under renovation. But still, it is a beautiful mosque. I hope the government will preserve it. I hope so. If you come here, you should definitely visit this place. From the outside, it's all white. But as soon as you enter, there is a hall. It has pillars and everything is very impressive. One of the famous things from Peshawar is Chappal Kebab. There is a lot of famous food in Peshawar. Falooda is very famous. Karahi Gosht is famous. Chapli Kebab is famous. I took him to Rehman Gul as well. But unfortunately, it was closed. Falooda is very delicious. Thank you very much. You have been in Germany as well as Saudi Arabia. And here you are today. We have come to your city now. Not only has our dinner been served but we also have two of our very good friends. Dr. Farhan on the left and Dr. Ubaid on the right. We met one of their friends, Dr. Umair. We got in touch with them through him. The place we have come to is Hujra. It is a very beautiful location on the Ring road. Doc please tell people something about this. Peshawar has a rich culinary heritage. We are basically carnivores. Especially lamb.... We love to eat meat. This is a traditional dish called urita. It is a barbecued form. It is lamb meat. We only add salt to it. We don't add any spices to it. We only add salt to it. This is the same thing. We have Shinwari Karahi here. This is the same lamb meat with tomatoes and green chilies. Salt, tomatoes and green chillies. I have eaten a lot of Shinwari Karahi. You can find it all over Pakistan. Enjoy it. Let's start. Finally, we are back at the hotel. We had a great time today. Unfortunately, I was a little tensed about my visa. We tried our best to explore Peshawar as much as we could. I need at least 3 to 4 days to explore the city. Then I can share that video with you. Wanted to make use of the time that we had today to explore the city. The people here are amazing. There is no comparison to the hospitality here. I have received a lot of respect wherever I have met people. Thank you all very much. I will try to come back here as soon as possible. I will make good content and share it with you all. Right now, I am trying to spend more time in the areas where I may not be able to visit again. Mostly, they are Central Asian countries like Mongolia. On top of that, I am also tensed about starting the tour. I want to leave as soon as possible. I want to travel internationally. I want to share those videos with you. You guys are also eagerly waiting for it. So do I. I hope that when we go to the consulate tomorrow, the consulate will be open and we will get visa on time. So, I may cross the border and show you Afghanistan in the next vlog. That's all for today. Remember me in your prayers. Don't forget to Like, Subscribe and Share. Allah Hafiz
