Truck art is the most famous and world-renowned art in Pakistan. There are five to six forms of truck art that belong to different areas of Pakistan. Every area's art includes that area's colors and pattern in it so each Truck has an individual identity. Each Truck shows the craftsman skills of its maker. Among those different truck art types, Quettawal trucks are very beautiful and most expensive. In these trucks, you can not find any empty space even mirrors are also decorated. The estimated cost of these trucks' decoration is around 1 million to one and a half million.
