Tourists should not pass up on the chance to visit the lovely Guraiz Valley while in Pakistan. It is glorious in either summer or winter months. The verdant green valley is thickly carpeted by dense forest.

Found high up in the Himalayas Mountains, Guraiz Valley is a veritable oasis among the icy towering white peaks. Visitors will find it on the border between Gilgit Baltistan and Azad Kashmir.

Unfortunately, the area is a site of periodic territorial conflict between India and Pakistan, meaning that the Pakistani army controls access to the valley.

Fortunately, they allow tourists to visit the stunning valley upon request.
