Pakistan’s tourist destinations range from the ancient ruins of Takhat-e-Bahi, Taxila, to 5000 years of old cities of the Indus valley Civilization such as Mohenjo-Daro and Harapa. from Hunza to Chitral Valleys to Lahore and Kalasha, every city has a diverse culture and stunning landscape to visit and call it home.

Pakistan has the range of most striking, must-visit cultural, spiritual and historic places from Quetta to Karachi and Peshawar to Islamabad.

Islamabad, the capital city of Pakistan indeed takes top honors for being the most beautiful and amazing city. What makes Islamabad stunning and unique is that the capital city is blessed with breathtaking natural wonders, spectacular views, alongside great infrastructure which is an added attraction for the foreigners and local tourists. This is what makes an incredibly attractive and exciting place to visit. 

Here are some of the reasons that made me love Islamabad profoundly

1- Beautiful Islamabad's Rain

If you think Islamabad is pretty in the mist filled winters, try visiting it in the monsoons. The pouring rain over the glorious hills make the city amazingly beautiful.

2-This city is way too clean

While the rest of Pakistan have significantly improved it’s infrastructure by building modern flyovers to high rise building and local road structure, Islamabad tops on planned structure and has been divided in different zones to keep city organized and clean. City environment is enjoyable with smooth traffic flow and lots of parking spaces.

3- Social connection

The population of Islamabad is over a million, while Karachi alone inhabits as many as 14 million people. Islamabad is therefore not over crowded but socially well connected. One is always guaranteed to bump into someone they know whenever they step out of their house. It might be a teacher, a relative, a friend, or a friend of relative. In Islamabad, everybody knows everyone in one way or another.

4- Stunning view of Margalla Hills 

Others may have to travel miles to be among the marvelous mountains. But the people of Islamabad have an unparalleled advantage of exploring amazing natural beauty right in their backyard. How can anyone get weary of such an amazing view?

5- Modern Architecture 

The beauty and majesty of the Faisal Mosque is sure to enthrall you. The novel design of the Mosque, the expansive open spaces, symmetry and white pillars against the backdrop of Margalla is an unparallel sight. Besides this, there are also several other most viewed and beautiful places and architectural buildings in city to visit and enjoy.

6- Shopping Paradise

This world class centaurs Mall located in the heart of the city is a great place to go shopping and the amazing architecture particularly draws the attention of all its visitors.

7- Beauty and Greenery

One thing that a person can’t seem to get over when visiting Islamabad is how green this city is! The greenery is bound to mesmerize and stay in your head long after you are gone. Islamabad is decorated with luscious green scenery throughout.

8- Historic Sites Visit

Islamabad, located on the Pothohar Plateau, is regarded to be one of the earliest sites of human settlement in Asia. Visitors can come across many good historic places in the city. Saidpur village is a must visit site. Bari Imam and Golra Sharif are some of the prominent shrines in the capital city where you can find many devotees and can witness a religious feel of Islamabad.

9- Hills and Parks

Best part about Islamabad is that the city is rich in natural beauty. There are many hiking trails and wonderful parks in the city. Some of the most beautiful natural scenery can be experienced in Margalla Hills, Rowel Lake, Daman-e-Koh, Fatima Jinnah Park, and Lake View Park. Fall and winter season is one the best time to visit these places to enjoy the weather.

10- Yummy Food and Restaurants
