To all those who did not understand my point. Let me tell you that Pakistan has a spot even more beautiful than Switzerland. Yes, I’m talking about “Switzerland of Pakistan” or Swat. Swat is the most beautiful region of Pakistan. Due to its beauty, the economy of Swat is dependant on tourism.
Of all beautiful points of Swat, “Malam Jabba” is on the top.

Malam Jabba is a beautiful hill station, 300 KM from Islamabad. It is 8700 ft. above sea level. It is located in the mountains of Karakoram range. It is the most beautiful and top skiing Hub with a lot of skiing resorts. It is the only best place that offers skiing at a big level.
Around the resort, Malam Jabba has 2 Buddhist stupas and 6 monasteries. The historic monuments and at such a height. Isn’t it interesting? It clearly shows that this place has a history of over 2000 years.
History:
The history of Malam Jabba goes back to 2000 years at the times of Swat rule. But regarding its skiing history, it was officially declared by the government. Later, in 2005 the government started to lose the handle over this skiing resort and in 2007 the activities stopped.
