It's a shame that such a beautiful place is ruined by worthless wars.

Before I start posting pictures, I would like to make a few statements. Many people here have an understanding of the burning Swat that was once a reality, but as they say, “time heals all wounds.” I would like to present to you the new and current state of Swat. (I will also post historical pictures here and there as well). The pictures I will be posting (most of them) range from years 2010 to current days. Please do not start arguments, strictly for picture purposes only. So sit back, relax, and enjoy the beauty of Swat.

PS: Most of these pictures end up being compressed. So do yourself a favor, right click the image, and open in new tab. Wa-La! There you have a larger size picture.

Comparable at scenic beauty level

But tourist needs infra,protection and most important transport..

Just imagine a train passing throughout the karakoram highway upto khunjerab and atleast within Swat district.would have attracted thousand of foriegn tourists
