Khewra Mines

World's second largest rock salt mines are located in Khewra, Pakistan. These huge deposits of salts are a national wealth and have been a tourist attraction for many years now. Tourists get to be inside a real active mine and they also get to experience some interesting views particularly of a mosque made out of rock salt. Also effects created by lighting and sculptures add to the beauty of this deposit.

Emperor Jahangir got this park constructed in the memory of his deer (antelope). Such was the magnanimity of Mughal emperors that they would create monuments out of love for their pets! This









Lahore Museum

One of the largest museums in Pakistan, Lahore Museum was built in the early years of British rule in sub continent in 1860s. The museum is frequented by tourists, local and foreign alike not only for its collection but also for its beautiful architecture which is reminiscent of British architecture in the region.









Minar-e-Pakistan

It is located in the same ground where in a large congregation, Quaid e Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah presided over Muslim League's annual meeting and Pakistan resolution was approved.

Neelum Valley

The Neelum Valley is a Himalayan gorge in Azad Kashmir, along which the Neelum River flows. This green and fertile valley is 250 km in length and stretches its way from Muzaffarabad all the way to Athmuqam and beyond to Taobutt. It is one of the most attractive tourists places, like Swat and Chetral, but due to poor road system is yet veiled to the outside world. This area was badly affected by the 2005 earthquake and was cut off from the outside world as the roads and paths were filled with rubble. Now construction of an international standard road is in progress. Neelum has had a great importance before and after the partition of India due to its beauty. Sharada Peeth was once most advanced and international standard institution during the Hindu and Buddhist era.
