   There are various things you can do while your stay in Rawalpindi. A few of them are: • Plan a trip to Raja Bazar, Bara Bazar and Murree Road. Although the traffic gets horrible at times, but you will find such amazing stuff at amazing prices that you'll forget the pain. Be careful in Raja Bazar in particular - it is not recommended for lone female travellers. • Go to Ayub Park, have a pleasant walk around, it will give you hours of walk in green meadows without having to worry about anything else. If you take the family along, you can eat snacks and even take you own for added fun. • If you have more time on your hands, go to Murree. Murree is one of the hottest attractions (attraction wise, temparture wise its very cold) where you can spend even weeks if you like to, every day is a new day. • Plan a visit to Rawat Fort 15 kms away on Jhelum Lhr Rd • Archiology lovers can visit the ruins of Taxila, 28 km from Rawalpindi. Taxila houses many ruins of Budhism, most important is that of Julian University.A beautiful museam holds the artifacts of that time. Taxila also offers many beautiful stone utensils. • Army meuseum near PC is also a place worth visiting. • Cinepax, (next to Jinnah Park), Modern western style cinema complex showing a range of south Asian and Hollywood films. • Taxila tourist train, Rawalpindi train station, On the first Sunday of each month a tourist train (possibly steam) makes its way from Pindi to Taxila, stopping at Golra Sharif station where there is a small museum. From Taxila a coach can take you to Khanpur dam - or you can check out the Taxila museum and ruins. The train leaves Pindi around 9am, returning in late afternoon. The ticket price is just Rs 1,200.
