Justin Welby, the leader of the world's Anglicans, will meet Muslim leaders and senior government officials during his stay, part of a week-long tour that will also take in India and Bangladesh.
Welby met Bishop Samuel Azariah, Moderator of the Church of Pakistan, in the eastern town of Raiwind on Tuesday, a spokesperson said.
Raheel Sharoon, development officer of the diocese of Raiwind, said the archbishop would also meet Punjab provincial governor Muhammad Sarwar.
"He will meet Muslim and Christian leaders tomorrow and address gatherings about interfaith harmony," Sharoon said.

@genesis: Ha! You should see what they say about our clerics.
It is these disparaging comments that highlight the way other religions are looked at.
Looks like a Chef's hat. They should show him the kitchen so he can get on with it.
their cricket team cannot visit because of security and their religious leaders (who might have a bulls-eye on their forehead for militants) can, it is all politics the way they stiffle our economy just because we are overwhelmingly muslims!
