Pakistan, a land full of adventure, nature, an enriching history and a heartening culture, stands with an unexplored and an endearing tourist industry. From the mighty Karakorum mountain ranges to the sketchy plains of Sindh, Pakistan attributes all the natural attractions that can make your tourist experience a remarkable one. Be it trekking, mountaineering, white water rafting, mountain and desert jeep safaris, wild boar hunting, , trout fishing, camel and yak safaris or getting indulged in cultural and traditional practices of beautiful ethnic backgrounds, Pakistans tourist spots will provide you with all. The vacationing expanse of Pakistan can be summarized and established as the 7 wonders of Pakistan. These would namely include; Ansoun Lake, the Khewra Salt Mines, Passu, The Great Trango Towers, Shangrila Lake, the Ranikot Fort and the Cold Desert of Skardu.
Together these 7 sights can be described as the most unique and distinctive features of this land. To begin with; Ansoun Lake, discovered in 1993, stands as a matchless sight in the entire world. Shaped like a teardrop, this lake is at an elevated ground of 16,490 meters in the Kaghan Valley. If you are a hiking fan and are in search for a challenging and worthwhile hike, Ansoun Lake is the spot for you.
The Khewra Salt Mines are said to be one of the hidden beauties of Pakistan.

Some of its attractions include; a mosque make of salt bricks, replicas of world monuments, an old post office made of salt, a salt fountain, Sheesh Mahal Tunnel etc. Passu the worlds heights continent (where there is nothing below 2500 meters) is the mixing bowl of ancient civilization and a fantasy of nature lovers.
Situated on the Old Silk Route by the west banks of the Hunza River and bordering with China, Passu disseminates an extraordinary contrast of landscapes, history and culture. It offers you an adventure on some of the most famous peaks of the world such as Passu peak, Passu cathedral peak and the Passu glacier which is the fifth largest glacier of the world.
The marvel of the Cold Desert of Skardu is world known. Surrounded by sky high mountains at an elevation of more than 10000 feet this dessert constitutes as the highest desert area of the world.

The Shangrila Lake is perhaps one of the most eminent tourist destinations within Pakistan. Known as Heaven on Earth, this lake is 8200 feet wide and is located in Skardu.

It is surrounded by fruit orchards, flower gardens and some of the highest peaks of the world. It provides a breathtaking and serene setting.
Located in the Kirthar Ranges of Sindh, Rani Fort is the worlds largest fort with a circumference of 29 km. This archeological site is a wondrous gift of history.
