Home to a multitude of landscapes and terrains, Pakistan has mountains and rivers for the adventurous, archaeological sites for the curious, and untouched beaches for those looking to escape the crowds. In a country with so many options to choose from, here are some of the best places to visit. Travel to the north for some of the best scenic views and adventure activities the country has to offer. Start your trip in Gilgit-Baltistan (GB), a popular choice for those seeking diverse experiences while sticking to just one region. GB, the northernmost administrative territory of Pakistan, is home to a number of mountain peaks over 20,000 feet, including the renowned K-2 and Nanga Parbat. Shandur, the world’s highest polo ground, is also located here, as is the turquoise-hued Attabad Lake in Hunza Valley that was created after a landslide in 2010.
