Peshawar is a smaller city compared to the other major cities of my country. The people there are nice, friendly, and co-operative. Pashto, Peshawri, and Urdu are the major languages spoken in Peshawar. In terms of cuisine, my city is especially famous for its Chapli Kebab and Afghani rice. Peshawar has a rich history and it is believed that it is one of the oldest living cities of the world.

Peshawar is one of the oldest cities in Asia and is the capital of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. Pashto is spoken in and around the city so if you happen to visit you might have quite an edge if you know a little Pashto. The name Peshawar is derived from the Sanskrit word meaning “City of Men”.
