Details

On Around.pk, you will be able to find information about restaurants, shopping places, hotels, cinemas, tourist spots, video-gaming cafes, schools, colleges, universities, businesses and much more!

The aim of the website is to provide the visitor with information on all the places in Pakistan on one website!  The visitor does not have to find information about different places on multiple websites or search engines.

How the idea was born:

One of our team members was visiting Karachi after a gap of 7 years for a business meeting. After attending the business meeting, he was alone and bored in his hotel room. Since he did not know much about the city, he tried to search the internet for amazing places to visit, but he could not find a website that was built solely for this purpose. There were a few websites, which only catered to specific categories such as hotels and restaurants, and even these sites didn't  provide much detail. So, it was time for action!  The idea to design a website where the visitor would be able to find all the amazing places around him/her that features different categories was born.

The website includes the following features:

• Google map integration (you can find the places on Google maps within the website)
  
• Step by step driving and walking instructions to desired locations
  
• In depth search functionality so you can easily find places
• Ratings and reviews of all the places on the website
• Events/Offers/Promotions/discounts offered by the business owners
  
• Owners get complete ownership of their business listing and can change information, images, and post events, offers, discounts and promotions by themselves
• Personal and business user accounts
  
• Facebook Login
  
• Bookmark favorite places

"The website not only provides useful information about places in Pakistan to the visitor, but it empowers the business owners as each place/business listing is an in depth page that acts as a mini website. From the business listing, the user will be able to purchase tickets, make online bookings, like and visit the Business Facebook and other social media pages etc."
