Merchandise in Pakistan

Craft traditions carried forward by makers across four provinces.

Pakistani merchandise is craft turned into product — ajrak shawls from Bhit Shah, Peshawari chappals stitched by hand, truck-art trays and mirrors, Multani blue pottery, Hunza dried apricots and Swati shawls sold from workshop counters and small studios.

Best time to visit
October–March for bazaar shopping in the plains; summer for northern craft markets.
