Border with India, about 30 km from Lahore. Closing of the border ceremony is performed every evening.

We arrived there on Pakistani Independence day, which was big event, with maybe 10 000 peole watching and shouting in frenzy "Pakistan zindabad" (Long live Pakistan). They really celebrate they independce day, not like we in Europe. Surprisingly, we saw no other tourists during this big event.

Pakistani border guard. They perform closing of the border ceremony, similarly as  Indian border guards.
