Pakistan among top 3 Travel destinations for 2020

By -


ISLAMABAD – The British Backpacker Society has awarded Pakistan third place in the highest potential adventure travel destinations for the 2020s.

The society had this to say on social media. “Otherworldly natural beauty, unforgettable road trips and a culture with hospitality at its core – Pakistan is a travel gem, and is one of the world's most exciting travel destinations right now."

The society highlighted the spectacular colors of nature in Pakistan, which offers various shades of life. “Images from the scenic masterpiece that is Gilgit Baltistan province are increasingly filling the pages of adventure travel brochures, but Pakistan offers so much more to travellers than just its north. In addition to touring the dramatic Karakoram Highway, visit the bustling markets of Karachi, taste the delectable flavours of the Punjab in Lahore, and grab tea with some of the friendliest people that you will ever meet on the story-teller’s street of Peshawar."

The society further advised the Government of Pakistan to invest heavily in promoting the country's tourism assets overseas, by “putting spectacular images of the Passu Cones, the Hunza Valley or Concordia on, for instance, London busses or New York cabs to showcase Pakistan's beauty to the world. This, alongside the work of travel journalists and travel bloggers, will continue to transform global perceptions of Pakistan, and will confirm to the world that it's tourism economy is now definitively open for business."

Earlier today, Prime Minister Imran Khan has also tweeted saying that Pakistan is a land of unimaginable beauty, hidden natural wonders and untapped tourism potential.
