Food Vlogging Flourishing Pakistan Reputation

Many vloggers from Pakistan  and outside Pakistan are showing our traditional foods which are attracted by the world of tourism. The tourist visits Pakistan to see their historical buildings, mesmerising landscapes, but now they do admire visiting to enjoy our traditional foods. Through vlogging many foreigners are visiting to Pakistan to enjoy their street foods. This help them also to get aware of our values,cultures and norms.

Mark Wiens Having Qadri Nali Baryani In Karachi

Through vlogging it has been neglected that Pakistan is a terrorist country anymore, because people manifest so much love and respect to the foreigners, that the negative perception created by main stream media of  has been proved wrong.

Now the Pakistan is not only famous for his beauty but also famous for its delicious foods.The quality of Pakistani street food is that it classed both desi foods and fast foods. There are number of street foods in Pakistan. Foreigners prefer street food because they get everything at one place. 

Foreigners are attracted by the street food because the food is prepared in front of them.  They can add new experience into their life by entering into the small streets and bulks of restaurant's in that place which shows the culture of Pakistani people. They can enjoy experiencing that because they usually don't have this kind of taste in their country and when they go back into their country they can reminisce that joy.

Why Pakistan is Still behind many Countries in Tourism

No doubt Pakistan is blessed with many beautiful eye-catching attractions but still there are many loopholes in the Country’s policy. Even many tourism reforms were introduced like visa on arrival, free visa policy, helicopter service etc. but issue is why will people visit Pakistan and if the Pakistan has blessed with so much natural landscape then how will the foreigners know about this beauty even when our own people are not aware. Before going towards the reasons why Pakistan is still behind in tourism, it is necessary to know where the Pakistan stands. According to the ranking that was published by United Nations Tourism Organisation France is the most visited country with nearly 87 million international visitors, and the Asian Pacific tourism stats are given below:

1. China has 61 million tourist arrivals
2. Thailand has 35 million tourist arrivals
3. Japan has 29 million tourist arrivals
4. Hong Kong has 28 million tourist arrivals
5. Malaysia has 26 million tourist arrivals
6. Macau has 17 million tourist arrivals
7. India has 16 million tourist arrivals
8. Singapore has 14 million tourist arrivals
9. South Korea has 13 million tourist arrivals
10. Indonesia has approximately 13 million tourist arrivals

Pakistan is no where near to top 10, according to an estimate there are total 323 million International tourist arrivals in Asia-Pacific, out of which Pakistan got only a share of 1.75 million. There are many reasons for Pakistan’s undergrowth in Tourism, but these 3 reasons have more weightage.

No Proper Communication Channel

There is not a single channel that is properly communicating the positive image of Pakistan, the beauty of Pakistan, there are only the bloggers that are communicating the true image of Pakistan through their experiences and by writing their travel stories. But our country only appreciates International Bloggers, the National bloggers also need appreciation to continue their good work and government need to establish a active communication channel.

Poor Maintenance

There are many tourist places all around the world that are older than the tourist places in Pakistan, but they are properly managed and maintain need and are in their true shape. In Pakistan, the roads towards northern areas are broken and in very bad condition and no repairment work is in process. No maintenance of historical places like Rhotas Fort etc.

Poor Security System

No security measures are taken to boost tourism, many tourists face issues of harassment and they find no medium to forward their complains ab such incidents, no translators for international tourists. No contingency plans for unknown situations.

The government and we as a nation must have to work on these problems to solve them and be a proud and peaceful nation and regain their lost value.

Travel for the sake of Food

Bangkok Thailand

When it comes to food street, then Bangkok Thai street ranks at number one in world. The speciality lies in the taste, cost and convenient meals that not only fulfil your hunger but also connect you with the culture of city.

When you are new to Bangkok the first thing that comes in mind is what to expect from Bangkok food street?  The answer is that in Bangkok street food comes in many forms, it can be offered on roadside cart, there can be number of stalls in a row or it can be normal restaurant with table chairs.

Following are the food that you can try in Bangkok:

Papaya salad, Fried rice, Noodles, steamed chicken, grilled chicken, fish BBQ cooked in salt.

Often people are worried about the hygiene of food, the basic tip is to go to the busy places as they would use fresh ingredients.

As mentioned earlier food streets are everywhere in Bangkok but when it comes to the variety and hot spots then Chinatown is the place.

Chinatown is also knows as food heaven of Bangkok. People visit Chinatown after sun set in search of special street side food. The energy that comes from the rows of wooden shops is just contagious! it would led to you to visit again and again. For best experience plan your visit during New year, and you will observe Chinatown at its best. Chinatown is an experience that is simply worth it and not to miss.

Pakistani Food Street

Food Street Lahore

Pakistani food is known to be one of the best desi food in world. From most famous Savor Pulao to Charsi ka Tikka, there is huge variety of meals present in food streets. In Pakistan special place is allotted to the food street with controlled entry system for security purposes. Unlike Bangkok most of the food is offered in proper restaurant instead of road side stalls.

Food Street Lahore

Islamabad Cricket Stadium Food Street is one of the renowned food street located in capital of Pakistan. There is huge variety of meals that includes Shinwari tikka, Rayn, Steam Roast, Chicken Karahi, Mutton Karahi etc. Pakistani’s are known to be foody people and from sunset to 12 o clock in normal days food street is full of traffic.

The major problem that Pakistani food street now a days facing is use of unhygienic practices due to which there were number of serious incident happened like food poisoning, diarrhea etc.

On the other hand there are restaurants that are very conscious about their reputation and offer best food in town. Kartarpura is the food street that need not be missed, located at Raja Bazar side in Rawalpindi. There is Nihari of Kala Shah that is reputable and renowned because of its more than 40 years of service. Kala Shah Nihari is famous because of its taste, people have to weight in ques for their turn and most of the time their stock get ran out because of their high sales. Similarly case is with other renowned names.

Pakistan is full of foodie people, even from foreign countries people visit Pakistan because of its diverse nature of food. Government must consider ensuring hygiene practices in local restaurants for promoting food industry of Pakistan and increasing revenue.  

Pakistan General Post Office Time to Mint Money From Tourism

Post office has opened 36 rest houses for the tourists. Now you can stay at less than RS.1200 per day. The post office has opened their rest houses for all tourists in order to have increase in the monthly earnings. These rest houses and hotels have low prices than the other rest houses and hotels of the market. It’s a cheerful update for all the backpackers that they can enjoy a room in budget.

"In the total earnings, there will be increase of Millions. These rest houses are located in Karachi, Lahore, Rawalpindi and other cities of Pakistan", said the post office.

Among these rest houses, 11 are of A category, 20 are of B category and 5 are of C category. The rent of “A” category rest houses is RS.3000; whereas, of “B” category is RS.2200 and the rent of C category is Rs.1200. The only aim of them behind the opening of these rest houses is to have an increase in the earnings. This will undoubtedly enhance the GDP of Pakistan.

The good part is that government is now using best use of its capitals to upsurge its revenues. This will not only increase the revenues of Pakistan post office but also help and increase number of the tourists to stay in budget accommodations. It’s a win-win situation that overall leads to the great benefits for the economy of Pakistan.

The auxiliary proposal is that this strategy can be adopted by other state enterprise which can add revenues from tourism rather than relying on their pure functions. One of the examples is of Pakistan Railway. The problem of recovery of its own land became a dispute for Pakistan Railways in year 2017. It was recorded that it was 4120 acres of land which worth around Rs. 89 billion. This encroachment was conducted in country by government and private organisations, counting the Rangers and Army in them. Billion rupees of land have remained occupied for commercial plots, housing and cultivation purposes, making the organisation frustrated. To avoid this they should develop rest houses and earn from their legal property. As we are observing an era of great tourism ahead in Pakistan, so all the public limited companies should increase side profits from this strategy.

Rapid Look on rest houses Locations of Post office:

• The A category rest houses are open in Rawalpindi, Karachi, Multan, Jehlum, Mianwali, Peshawar, Lahore, Sialkot, Faisalabad and Quetta.
• The B category rest houses are in Murree, Attock, Chitral, Abbottabad, Ayubia, Mīrpur Khās, Sorab, Amri, Taftan, Kalat, Muzafarabad, Mirpur, Kotli, Gilgit, Skardu, Sust, Gujarat and Layyah.
• The C category rest houses are available in Pindi Point Muree, Saidu Shareef, Bannu, Ziarat and Sialkot.

Everyone Need such Friends – Memorable Visit to Rawalakot

This is the backside of Lake.

One of our friend in NUML invited us to visit him in Rawalakot in 2016 and we the best buddies make a plan to visit him and the Kashmir side. So, as decided we three (Me, Bilal and Asfand) reached Faizabad, one thing I want to mention here we go on local Hiece and I recommend others who are not professional drives do not try taking your car to such places.

So, we start our journey by buying some snacks and coke and the journey was mesmerizing wherever you look you will see only mountains some covered with snow. When we enter Rawalakot our friend picks us in his car and straight we go for lunch. After finishing the lunch, we started our beautiful journey towards Banjosa Lake, the lake is very beautiful and in winter it freezes. Because of snow we have to park the car on some distance to Lake, we enjoyed a lot there, lots of snow fighting, the bridges coved with snow, it was the month of February and we have great time there.

This is the screenshot of the video of snow fighting

We spend a half day there it was such an amazing place and I never seen such place in my life before and I really enjoying everything. After that in evening we start our journey toward our next destination Toli Pir, as we started our journey towards Toli Pir we see the road sides covered with snow a crane was working there to clear the snow to stabilize the traffic. As the crane was working we get out of the car and start asking the people who are coming from Toli Pir their experience there and they said there is so much snow and we stuck there and now after a couple days the snow is clear and we are coming back. That is why I recommend you if you want to visit this in winter no doubt it will be amazing but come with complete preparation and have some extra budget to any of the undecided situation.

On the way to Toli Pir

After the crane clear the snow we started our journey again but we unabled to reach Toli Pir because the car stated was slipping and we decide to stop the car and enjoy snow hike and return back. That day I miss Toli Pir but I am overwhelmed to come back in winters anytime.

The Excuses Everyone Listen while making Plans With Friends

Just for Fun

Everyone like to visit to the new places but there are few boring souls that are not interested to go on any trip and I am blessed with such friends. I always see many of the stories of the friendship goals and travel squads, but my friends did not give me any chance to upload such a story with such captions. Now I am going towards the out of the box excuses that most of the time I listen, when I am trying to make some plans:

My family will not allow me:

”In short abba ni maany gy” most of the time this is the biggest weapon for the friends who are not interested to make any plans always destroyed it by saying this. Even they don’t talk about the plan with their parents and make them agree that friends are forcing me to go with them, but this is not the case with my friends. They are the astrologists, they already know that their parents will not allow them, so they don’t even discuss once. LOL

I Have no Money:

When my friends little grows up the excuses was getting more lame, I will not go because I have no money like we are going Dubai for picnic. If I argue that ask your parents that friends are going on a trip and I also want to join them, but no they always say that I do not like to ask my parents about money but when they have to fuel up, printing notes or any other thing then they will ask their parents that give me money you bough me a car and support me to get admission in university. LMAO

One Who can’t Wake up Early:

The out of the box excuse that I have listened while making a plan for a one-day trip. We friends decided to leave early at 7 and will reach home at 10 everyone agrees but there is a one who is saying that I can’t wake up early, make some plan at night like we have to take torch with us to see the beautiful landscapes. 

Legends:

There are also some other categories of friends who always trying to say no for a plan but not openly just taking the shoulders of other to fire the bullet like if he is not going then I am also not going. Will discuss in some other blogs.

Suggestion:

Time Flies but memories last for ever. Try to avail opportunity to grab as much memories as you can!

Trip to Toli Pir

Toli Pir is located in Azad Kashmir, Tehsil Poonch, District Rawalakot. It’s a hill top area with height of approximately 8800 ft above sea level. Its only 20 minutes’ drive from the district Rawalakot and the Poonch river can be seen from this location. It is the highest mountain located in vicinity of Rawlaakot. 
This trip was planned by our finance teacher of Comsats. We gather at 7 o clock in morning at parking area of Comsats University. Coaster was hired for group of 30 people. Bus was departed at 8 o clock with all the class mates.

It took almost 3 hours 20 minutes to reach the District Rawalakot as we adopted the route from GT road towards Kahuta. Road is congested and narrow because of single road for two way traffic, secondly there were many blind curves that requires to be cautious while driving. If you have no experience of driving in hilly areas, it is strongly recommended to hire experienced driver and enjoy your tour.

Though road conditions are not good but scenic beauty of Pines tree make your trip amazing. All over the route you would see greenery, small huts and not to forget the height area view. Till Rawalakot there is not even a single reasonable place where one can stop for the refreshment, so it is recommended to take your meal along with you for enjoying the picnic as well.

We stopped at Dhabba in main city of Rawalakot for refreshment. Weather was bit cold even in month of May. So we ordered chicken karahi along with chowpati for whole class. Food was delicious and everybody enjoyed it. After  having food from Dhabba, bus was departed towards Toli Pir. It took us almost 20 minutes to reach the parking area of Toli Pir.

People say that if there is any heaven on earth then it is Kashmir, Toli Pir proved it right. It’s a 15 min walk from the parking area to the top of Toli Pir hill and literally you can feel the clouds here. It’s the place of peace where you can get out of your anxiety and depression and the view let you think, how beautiful God has created nature. It is one of the most beautiful discovery of my life in which nature was seen from very close.

Tourism May Proves to be a Helping Hand Towards Pakistan’s Falling Economy

Pakistan has everything from the world highest mountains to deepest rivers and sea, weathers from summer to winters, spring to autumn, from deserts to beaches, from snow to valley, Pakistan has every possible thing that is essential, and the things tourists are looking for. The only thing that Pakistan is lacking in this industry is maintenance of tourist’s attractions and proper decor needed. But new government has did many things in recent months to boost tourism in Pakistan like it is discussed in previous blogs that the visa policy for tourists is changed and tourists can get it easily and also on the spot visa can also be provided and many facilities like Helicopter service will be provided to tourists from hotel to destination and back. The thing to boost tourism to that extent that it can improve the Pakistan economy is the proper marketing channel that is the need of the time to improve the Pakistan image and make the tourists and the foreigners realize that there are many beautiful places to explore.

As of statistics given on Emerging Pakistan Tourism contributed 2.7% of GDP and it is expected to grow double in the upcoming years. To increase the tourism in Pakistan media can play a vital role by publishing the interviews of foreigner’s visitors and by showing the hospitality of Pakistani people. And by engaging the foreigner’s bloggers and you-tubers with them to show case the true positive image of Pakistan. More the tourism activities in Pakistan more the economy moves towards stability.

Memorable Journey Towards the Heart of Mountains

Shogran is the Pakistan’s most beautiful hill station, situated in a green plateau in the Kaghan Valley northern Pakistan at a height of 2,362 metres (7,749ft) above sea level.

Shogran is located at 34 kilometres away from Balakot. I went there with my family, cousins and relatives on 8th September 2018. The transport we prefer was Toyota Hiace. We went straight from Islamabad to Abbottabad, Usmania resturant. We all had lunch over there. Food was delicious. Then after eating, we started our journey towards Shogran. The road from Islamabad to Abbottabad is good, but the road that takes you to the Shogran hills is not constructed well. The road from kawai to Shogran was okay at that time but not due to poor maintenance is not so good. We went from Kawai to Shogran in 30 mins. It is a beautiful place where the air is so fresh, the mountains are so close and seemed ready to welcome us. The must visit place in shogran is Forest Rest House. It has a big grassy lawn, with an outstanding view. Me and my relatives, we all sat there on the fresh green grass and enjoyed our snacks. All the uncles and boys played bat ball on the garden, while the women and the girls were enjoying their badminton racket match. There are some markets on the hill which provides you tea, coffee, chips and some of the shops has traditional things like cloths, bags, shawls etc. Hotels and motels are available on a very affordable price. One of the best hotels to stay were Arcadian Spruce woods, Pine Park Shogran, Cedarwood. We stayed for a night in my friend’s hotel over there. It has nice and big bedrooms. His farm was well maintained and clean. There was a lot of beautiful birds, ducks in the farm. We did bbq at night, and then we had some soup. The stars seem so close at night, the sky looks like it has diamonds in it. The wind was so cold at night that we did a bonfire on a side and enjoyed gossips. Mobile phone service is also available there.

The next morning, we woke up to a beautiful view, nice and shinny day. We did our breakfast. We enjoyed a lot while drinking tea with such an amazing weather. After breakfast we had to go back, as we went there for a day, but we all were sad to leave such a nice place where anyone can live for there whole life. We took a lot of photos in the morning for memories. And then we started our journey again back to Islamabad.

Trail 5 Margalla Hills

Trail 5 Margalla Hills

One of the most popular and best tracks is located at F-5 Margalla Road Islamabad. This track is almost 3.8 km long, divided into three routes. First route of 1.8 km is simple and straight to hick as there is no steep path and route is clear from rocks, this route leads to the spring where hikers can fill their bottles with cold water stream.

There is steep route as well also known as “trail 5 dangerous”. So, it gives a good combination of tough and relax time. “Trail 5 dangerous” has steep slippery path and it is highly not recommended for beginners to use and as well as not to return from this track especially. 

My journey to trail 5 started with group of my Comsian fellows. We were 15 people, bunked the International Relation class and gather at trail 5 for getting out of monotonous routine. We started our hiking session at 0900 PST in crew form.  All mates were wearing joggers, highly motivated as they were mentally ready for 3 hours continuous hike session.

Initially route was like piece of cake, everybody passed it easily. After 1.5 hours of hick we decided to take break for 30 minutes near water spring as everybody were exhausted. So, we filled our bottles here and opened our lunch boxes for restoring the drained energy.  After the break, again hiking session begins.  Our group was divided into 2 directions, one towards normal track and other towards dangerous track. I opted towards dangerous track as it was shortcut for reaching near Pir Sohawa road. It was in short million-dollar view from the curve of the steep mountain, where one can observe the nature closely. 

There were monkeys spotted at track, it is highly recommended to hold stick or teaser to avoid any sort of unfortunate accident. Though chances are very less, but still accident can be happened anytime and after all it’s a wild animal. (P.S The boy climbing at tree is Sedrick J Nicholson who was our CR at that time.)

The moment we reached Pir Sohawa Road was not less than “EID” for us, after 4 hours of hick we were able to reach this place. At the point everybody was just like, now no more steps! So, we decided to hire careem/uber. Unfortunately, our 3g was not working at that point so we decided for plan B. Plan B was to find some lift! 15 people were fitted in 3 vehicles successfully and were dropped at “Monal Resturant”.

At Monal, the moment we sit for lunch each and every person consumed almost one liter of water. After 15 minutes order was placed in which we ordered chicken karahi, malai boti, chappati, lasagnia, pizza and sandwiches.  Gossip session started till the arrival of our food! The level of hunger was at its peak and my fellows were like “Kab Ayay Ga Order”. Finally, after 30 mins order was placed and yes it was amazing.

After having food from Monal, we departed from Monal by hiring a single cabinet. All fellows were settled in back of Cabin. It was really an amazing trip and a day well spent with best people of that time. I didn’t remember what I ve studied in my IR Class but i do remember this day, and it is one of the golden day of my life.

Kalash Valley and Chitral

The Kalash individuals are Pakistan's smallest religious individuals and, consistently, they hold a progression of inconceivably bright celebrations. From Gilgit, it is conceivable to get a 14 hour Natco transport, crossing the dazzling Shandur Pass, to Mastuj. From Mastuj, you should then take a four hour jeep to Chitral where you can visit the Kalash Valleys and remain with Engineer Khan at the Kalash Guesthouse. The Kalash individuals hold a large number of their conventional convictions and a visit to the valleys is a special chance to see this little network, said to be plunged from the armed forces of Alexander the Great. On the off chance that you need to visit the Bumbaret and Kalash Valleys, you should initially enlist at the Foreigner Reigstration Office in Chitral Police Station. In Bumbaret, Kalash Continental Guesthouse comes prescribed as a spot to remain. It is presently conceivable to get to Chitral from Swat by jeep or from Gilgit by means of NATCO transport.
The transport ride to Chitral from Gilgit is around 14 hours (grand ride). The transport isn't GOING TO CHITRAL OR EVEN MAJUD! In Gilgit you purchase a ticket for Majud, yet they will record a little town 25km before Majud as the last goal. It's written in Urdu so it's not reasonable for generally outsiders. They won't clarify this… my host in Gilgit purchased the ticket for me and revealed to me the transport will ride to Majud as this is the thing that he was told by the transport organization. A couple of kilometers before Majud there are two avalanches which are not crossable for the NATCO-transport. So the transport will simply stop at the last police checkpoint before Majud and that is it. At that point the diversion begins… the police won't let you through thus there are two choices accessible: Either hanging tight for an "uncommon vehicle" originating from Majud or remaining medium-term at the Guesthouse which is directly beside the checkpoint…A large portion of the general population in the transport chose to begin strolling since one of the cops said it's about a hour stroll till we are on the opposite side of the avalanche. There would be vehicles sitting tight for us on the opposite side, we were told. Following three and a half hours strolling (completely prepared) in obscurity we at long last crossed two avalanches and the police lifted me up from that point to escort me to an inn. These two are unquestionably not crossable for any vehicles right now!I touched base at the TPDC motel in Mastuj and could remain for nothing (at the telephone the proprietor offered me a space for 2150, I declined and inquired as to whether he can offer me a spot to camp). I think he just offered to remain for nothing since he realized that my transport to Chitral is leaving at 5am. From Majud jeeps (150 Rs) are not going directly to Chitral, they're going to Booni where you need to change to a van (130 Rs) going to Chitral.Before leaving Gilgit, buy enough water for at least one and a half days.. I neglected to purchase water the day preceding I left from Gilgit and this was a major slip-up. There's no shop in Gilgit which is open at 6am. There's solitary one stop in transit where you can purchase something. Utilize this! On the off chance that you don't have water at Shandur Pass you will feel the elevation. Shandur pass has "dozing offices". There are two tent inns en route. Try not to anticipate anything unique. Sit on the left half of the transport, you'll see a greater amount of the delightful landscape in transit. Al Farooq lodging offers incredible single spaces for 600 Rps per night – WiFi is the best I had in Pakistan up until this point.

Best Spots in Islamabad the Tourists should be Aware of

It is the most beautiful city of Pakistan. The tourists come every year from all around the world to visit Islamabad and there are many people coming from different cities of Pakistan to visit Islamabad.

Tourists came for a tour of week or less. So, they only cover that spots that are very much popular and famous all around the world and they didn’t see the beauty beyond that place. One of the most famous places in Islamabad is ”Faisal Mosque”, there are thousands of tourists visiting it every month, but they don’t know about the tracks for hikers near Faisal Mosque like the “Trail 3”,”Trail 5” and “Trail 6”, they all are under 30-minute drive from Faisal Mosque and a fun spot for hikers and adventurous people.

The other spot was very well known for Islo (people living in Islamabad) people known as “Rose and Jasmine Garden” which is now shadowed by the “Pakistan Monument”. Tourists are very rarely pay visit to Rose and Jasmine Garden, but they must visit Pakistan Monument, as Islamabad Citizen I suggest people to visit Rose and Jasmine Garden in Spring and you will not find different beautiful flowers in one place in Pakistan and that view is just refreshing.

There are also many places that many people living in Islamabad are also not aware of “Neela Sand” is a best picnic spot having a waterfall near Nilore. “Railway Heritage Museum” present in Golra it gives a unique look of Victorian Style Railway Station that was established in 1882 and is a connecting point between Peshawar, Kohat and Havalian. “Pharwala Fort” many people are even not familiar with the name it is just 40 miles away from Islamabad at Kalar Syadan. It is the capital of Gakhar State and it was conquered by Babar.

It doesn’t cover all the tourist’s spots in Islamabad but closely cover all the lesser known places to the tourists that are new in Islamabad and those who are coming from outside of the country or city.
