Tea time in Peshawar Photo

Photographer’s Note

It's tea time!
In this shop the tea is made and distributed to other shop keepers on the street. I am assuming it is a family business here ;-).

I've seen a couple of tea places like this one in an ancient town of Peshawar. It is hard not to buy a cup. Pakistanis are good salesmen!

Hi Joanna,

Nice capture of daily life in Peshawar. This reminds me of so many tea shops in Lahore too. Many of them are also run by Pathans and these shops sell some of the best tea in the world...eventhough sometimes the utensils used may not be the cleanest but its the taste that matters...

regards, Raza
