Whenever we think about enjoying vacations in Pakistan, the first thing that springs to mind are Murree. Murree is possibly the most famous tourist attraction in the country because it is physically positioned on top of a mountain, which accounts for its truly stunning vistas of endless woods among massive mountains.
However, the negative impacts of tourism have taken their toll on this lovely hill station, causing it to become increasingly commercial over time. So, for all of you nature lovers seeking an alternative travel destination where beauty has been kept in its original state, we have five fantastic spots for you:
Swat
The Swat Valley, sometimes known as Pakistan's Switzerland, is endowed with some of nature's most beautiful gifts. Flowing streams, lush woods, fruit orchards, and massive mountains are all charming features of this district.
