At Multan the place also known as "City of saints" and Tomb city it has lots of tombs of religious personalities.
People all over the Pakistan come here for :bowthough it is considered a great sin to do that on graves etc but people still do.The other factor is that they keep doing that way because they saw their elders doing that and because literacy level is very low so they don't understand.Here is where polititions take advantage of the devoted people to tomb and get votes from them how ? Well owners of tombs or decendents of people buried in tomb are all mostly Polititions :huh

City is great to walk around and have lots of historic places to see full of culture and people are great. Man with DSLR can travel in city with no fear of being robbed. I was there just for few hours.

Me and smuggy got van for Multan from Bhawalpur
