staring problem
Like any other cities of sub-continent, staring at strangers, girls and foreigners is common practice in street and bazaar of Gujranwala. It is not considered rude, but outsiders especially foreigners may not be comfortable about this. A girl should always have a "dupatta" on her head as people start talking to each other about the girl that she has no haya, sharam though its normal to have dupatta as a 'V' shape over your chest in big cities like Lahore, Karachi and Islamabad but here Gujranwala is little conservative city
movies
The city has several cinema halls like Zinco Multiplex. Catch a movie at any one of the halls all of which are air conditioned and well maintained. The best cinema halls are located in zimco and Kasmir Mehal.best hall is and second is Rocsy.
books shop
Gujranwala is not fantastic place for buy books, but i found few shops of books, for english novals and others , old book fair shop at taj center, satellite town martket, pirated eddition are also take place in thier shelve on cheaper prices. It's so cheap! :),There are a few others good bookstores in satellite town market. Just pop into any of them and immerse in them books :)
weather
Gujranwala is a hot, dusty city and the combination of the two may reduce visibility in the summer. In April through June, temperatures regularly top 40°C, meaning that proper hydration is of the utmost importance. In winter there can be seasonal fog; on particularly foggy days, it can be difficult to see across the street. If you happen to be traveling in or out of city during the winters, be aware of fog-related flight delays. Drink only bottled water so you may avoid any water-related illness. Keep yourself covered in summers to avoid a heat stroke. Drink a lot of water - 3 litres a day - particularly in the summer
press
The city has a expansive presence of nearly all leading national dailies which bring out their City based editions. Major among these are Jang, express news,samaj, muqabla,jinnah etc.
