Top 5 Places to Visit in Peshawar – A Journey Through Time, Culture & Flavor By Tour Da Pekhawar

Peshawar isn’t just a city – it’s a living museum. With over 2,000 years of history, it is one of South Asia’s oldest cities, rich in heritage, culture, and unmatched hospitality.

Whether you’re a local exploring your roots or an international traveler uncovering ancient civilizations, here are the Top 5 Places You Must Visit in Peshawar, curated by Tour Da Pekhawar – the pioneers of guided city tours since 2017.

1. Masjid Mahabat Khan – The Mughal Marvel

Built in the 17th century, this stunning white-marble mosque is a masterpiece of Mughal architecture. Nestled in the narrow lanes of Androon Sheher, it stands as a symbol of spiritual elegance with its domes, minarets, and beautifully painted interiors.

Don’t Miss: Climbing the minaret for a panoramic view of the Walled City and listening to the call of the azaan echo through the alleys.

2. Sethi House – The Jewel of Sethi Mohallah

An architectural treasure from the 1800s, Sethi House represents the cultural links between Peshawar and Central Asia. It’s known for its carved woodwork, vibrant frescoes, and underground network used during trade missions along the Silk Route.

3. Qissa Khwani Bazaar – The Bazaar of Storytellers

Qissa Khwani is not just a bazaar – it’s a stage where centuries of history have played out. From colonial resistance to poetic gatherings, it’s a place where culture, politics, and commerce have long intersected.

Cultural Highlight: Sip kehwa at a corner shop and imagine the storytellers from ancient caravans reciting folktales to travelers.

Peshawar Museum – The Keeper of Gandhara Legacy

This museum is home to one of the world’s finest collections of Gandharan Buddhist Art, along with rare Islamic manuscripts, Mughal coins, and colonial-era weapons. Every gallery speaks of a different era that shaped Peshawar’s unique identity.

Best Time to Visit: Mornings are ideal for a calm walkthrough, especially with a knowledgeable guide.

Gor Khatri Complex – Peshawar’s Historical Heartbeat

Located at the highest point of the old city, Gor Khatri has been everything from a Buddhist monastery to a Mughal-era caravanserai and a British archaeological site. Today, it houses a museum, fire brigade tower, traditional hammam (bathhouse), and a panoramic viewpoint of the city.

Why Visit: It’s one of the few sites that encapsulate all the historical layers of Peshawar in one place.

Final Thoughts

These five spots only scratch the surface of what Peshawar has to offer. The real magic lies in the stories, the people, the food, and the hidden corners that come alive with a local guide.
