ISS007-E-13090 (21 August 2003) --- This view featuring Islamabad and Rawalpindi was taken by an Expedition 7 crewmember onboard the International Space Station (ISS). These two capital cities in Pakistan lie next to each another, but display land use patterns that are entirely different. Islamabad has a rectangular street pattern nestled against the Margala Hills. The larger Rawalpindi lies to the south on the Soan River.
