What does our country not have, the four rich seasons, the most beautiful lake in the world, Saiful Muluk, flowing rivers, miles of beaches, glaciers, beautiful mountain ranges and peaks including 2-K, green plains, rolling fields and fruits. Gardens, Thar desert, the oldest civilization Moen Jo Daru and Harappa, numerous archaeological sites, Red Fort, Badshahi Mosque, etc., etc. Not blessed by nature, but perhaps we are among those who are unable to take advantage of it to the fullest, despite being rich in the endless wealth of tourism.
Our elites go abroad for vacations but are ignorant of the beautiful scenery of their own country.
``After visiting Sindh and Punjab, I left for a trip to the northern regions of Pakistan with some of my friends. Our destination was Hunza. Decided to settle what my eyes saw during the beautiful route than we thought, I may not be able to describe in words.
Peaceful atmosphere and simple life, fragrant fragrance everywhere, pollution free environment, no noise, no tune of leaving each other behind in life and all that those who live in big cities may not even imagine.
The journey to Hunza through Bisham and Gilgit is related to seeing, the eyes were dazzled by seeing the milky way at night under the peak of Raka Poshi, the snow-covered peaks were shining four moons in beauty, above all I will remember the hospitality and warmth of the locals for the rest of my life.
Not only a large number of local tourists were enjoying the weather and beautiful scenery, but there were also a large number of foreign tourists, including Australian, French, Japanese, British tourists and Paso were also seen trekking the glaciers.
On the streets of Ultat Fort, Baltit Fort and Karimabad, tourists were engrossed in their tunes and were also shopping.
The special thing about Hunza is that women and men work side by side with 100% education there, women will be seen working in every sector, be it carpenters or plumbers, paint work or small industries, women do everything. As you will see, our stay was in a hotel located on the top of the mountain.
The view of the snow falling on the mountains from the windows and balcony of the hotel room, with hot, steaming tea, and then after dinner drinking coffee under the sky full of millions of stars is indescribable. is
After seeing the rush of tourists at the beautiful entertainment places and talking to them, I realized that our country has the potential to attract the attention of tourists from all over the world. For the provision of facilities, these questions were revolving in my mind that why do we not promote tourism, many countries of the world are earning endless foreign exchange only from the tourism sector and we?
Our next destination was Swat. On the way to Swat, the fascinating views, the charm of the Swat river and the winding roads were surprising us all and it was sad to think that the government paid no attention to tourism. On the other hand, we can easily get rid of the debt burden and work for the welfare of the people.
On reaching Swat, we were greeted by minus 4 degrees Celsius, but the blood-curdling cold kept us enthralled by this beautiful city and could not dampen our spirits.
One thing that everyone noticed was the presence of local and foreign tourists in these areas along with the restoration of the law and order situation. Talking to some people, it was found that the beauty of Malam Jabba and its resort drew them there. has done
We also went to Malam Jabba and went up and down difficult snowy roads, it takes two and a half to three hours to reach the resort of Tumalam Jabba if you travel on foot, the roads covered with snow and the icy winds on it also attract tourists. could not cool down their passion and started walking from where the vehicles stopped, the surrounding scenery was so beautiful that the tourists forgot the harshness of walking and the cold weather, whether they were children or adults, men. Or the ladies all looked excited to go skiing, local people were seen helping everywhere, the quality of the slopes made it clear that Malam Jabba is world class for winter sports.
During the conversation with the local tour operators, it was found that besides summer holidays, thousands of tourists visit here in winter as well, their arrival benefits the local household industry, as well as other employment including food and drink, horse riding. The business of the people connected with it also shines.
One thing that became clear throughout this tour is that Allah Almighty has given this country everything that the world wishes for, if it lacks, equipping it with better facilities and promoting it globally.
According to experts, billions of dollars can be earned every year by promoting the tourism sector in Pakistan and I am sure that if this is done, it will only benefit the poor people of this land and the poor people here. It is only one step to be taken, only one decision to be made, the work which was to be done 70 years ago should be done at least now, the means of development and prosperity of the people should be provided.
