Travelling to northern areas

by Sakshi Rani (Pakistan)

Making a local connection Pakistan

DAY 1 So it was 20 june 2018 when i started my journey towards northern areas with my family. The only purpose of this journey was to spend some time with family, to refresh the mind , and to explore the things as every new place and people teaches us alot. So would u like to know what i explored? Did I spend sometime with my family? was i able to refresh my mind? Ofcourse , yes. So lets start we were having flight from sukkur city to islamabad and it was my 1st time on flight and i was so excited and little bit nervous but it was really amazing journey. I had enough fun with my family during this flight. And than on reaching islamabad we visited PAKISTAN MONUMENT( the historical place ) and MONAL RESTAURANT "At the top of morgalla hills" These both places just touched my heart. I explored about history of our leaders and restaurant gave me thought of beauty and nature. DAY 2 I woke up and found myself all wrapped up in the softest and the most comfortable quilt. There was a new energy in everything around me. I could feel it runing in my veins too. I wonder if its because of the atmosphere around us or its we ourselves who generate this energy. I guess both. This was the first time i was taking a shower in this part of the world perhaps this part of our country and this evergreen city 'Naran' and i couldn't but love it for the sweet scent of water and the relishing landscape felt like it took all the woes of the world with them and left them in the midst of the glorious hills of Naran. The next thing was a good breakfast. After breakfast, I along with my family were set to visit the the most beautiful place on earth 'the jheel Saif-ul-malook'. I dont want to remember the way to this jheel. As always good things come to those who wait likewise to encompass the magnificence of this place, one has to go tumbling and sprawling all the way to this jheel in a jeep for the route to this place is all eroded and barren. After ages of tossing, we finally were able to witness the splendour of this place. How breathtaking! How spectacular! The glistening whiteness of the glaciers and the blue water of the lake is just inexplicable. The lavishing atmosphere had pepped a new kind of spirit in us. That moment i found myself lost in gigantic comeliness of the place and silently praying to stay at this place forever. Goodness gracious! the lord who made this grandeur. DAY 3 And again another morning as well as another day for new adventures started. On that day we started our journey towards pearl continental restaurant. It was much peaceful evironment there and i was feeling much relaxed. In evening we started visiting restaurant and it was so beautiful having 10 house in one forest area and we were just playing hiden and see games and also finding those houses , it was much fun. Late night kawali was there and than our own late night gossips it was making me feel much relaxed with family and spending good times. DAY 4 Day 4 started with morning in muree. The most beautiful and wonderful place. Its streets were giving the proof of happiness as people were just enjoying the weather and atmosphere there and they were like free of everything (much relaxed) . We did shopping there but most important we enjoyed weather as it was raining there and we found a person preparing 'jalebi' and another one coffee. And these things with weather and family just give me much pleasure , it was just an amazing combination. DAY 5 We just started our journey back to home from ISLAMABAD by GREEN LINE TRAIN. But on the way we visited abbotabad and centoras mall and than to station and it was also my 1st time on train. And much excitment was there. Enjoyment whole of the day was continued and travelling ended like it wasn't started. But it was really memorable journey. Unforgettable moments and togetherness.
