A compelling reason to visit Pakistan is the Gojal Valley, which shares borders with China and Afghanistan. At Khunjerab, where its border meets China, the altitude reaches 15,397 feet above sea level, and the area remains covered in snow throughout the year. In the northwest lies Chiporsun, which borders the Wakhan region of Afghanistan. Wakhan spans approximately six square miles before reaching Tajikistan. The renowned Karakoram Highway, connecting Pakistan to China, traverses through the Gojal Valley and enters China at Khunjerab, offering breathtaking views and unparalleled adventure opportunities.
5. Deosai Plains – Pakistan Destinations
In this travel guide for Pakistan, we’ll introduce you to Deosai, situated on the boundary between the Karakoram and the western Himalayas. It maintains an altitude of over 4000 meters above sea level at all points and remains blanketed in snow for 8 months of the year. During the remaining months, Deosai bursts into a riot of colorful flowers, but surprisingly, not a single tree grows in this vast plateau spanning over 3000 square kilometers. The famous Sheosar Lake is also located here, one of the highest lakes globally. Its deep blue waters, set against snow-capped mountains in the background and surrounded by greenery and wildflowers in the foreground, offer a mesmerizing view during the summers that will stay etched in your memory forever.
Just a short distance beyond Rama Village, located 11 kilometers from Astore, lies the picturesque and tranquil Rama Meadow. If you ever find yourself in this plain, amidst its ice-cold streams, with milk-white water flowing gently, and sheep and cows grazing peacefully, surrounded by pine trees, with the ice-covered peak of Chongra looming in the background, and the southern ridge of Pakistan’s coolest place, Nanga Parbat, visible in the distance, then you have surely arrived at Rama Meadow.
Shogran has experienced a surge in tourist activity, which has unfortunately resulted in its natural beauty being somewhat diminished. However, Siri Paye still holds a strong appeal for tourists as a lush green plateau atop the Hindu Kush mountains. Often shrouded in clouds and fog, it captivates many with its mystical atmosphere, allowing visitors to witness nature’s playful game of hide-and-seek. Here, you’ll encounter numerous small ponds brimming with freshwater, encounter horse-riders roaming about, and breathe in the fragrance of wild yellow flowers blooming everywhere. With the majestic Makra Peak serving as a backdrop, the enchanting beauty of the Siri Paye meadows truly comes to life.
8. Ayun and Bamburet Valley – Two beautiful places of Pakistan
Ayun district is a village in Chitral, situated 12 kilometers south of the city at the junction of the Bamburet River. The beauty of the mountains encircling the village is truly indescribable. Beyond Ayun valley lies the Bamburet Valley, one of the three Kalash valleys. It takes nearly two hours to reach Bamburet from Chitral. The locals here trace their roots back to Alexander the Great and Greece. Bamburet valley is a picturesque destination characterized by lush greenery and mountains, offering a sense of tranquility and solitude to visitors.
9. Baluchistan Pakistan Beautiful Places
Balochistan, the least developed province in the country, grapples with poverty and has suffered from years of neglect. The remote rural areas of the province still resemble a scene from medieval times. Moreover, poor infrastructure and transportation facilities hinder tourists from exploring the southwest region of the country. However, the future development of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) is expected to open doors for tourism in Balochistan. Despite its challenges, the province boasts numerous breathtaking recreational spots that have the potential to attract both local and foreign visitors. With the provision of proper facilities, tourism could thrive in the area. Some of the noteworthy places to visit in Pakistan from Balochistan include:
