Murree: The most famous hill station of Punjab, ‘Murree’ has attracted a large number of tourists during Eid al Fitr holidays particularly on Sunday and Monday.
This year, five Eid holidays (April 21 to 25) were announced by the government which provided a great recreational opportunity for the citizens.
On the first day of Eid, people remained busy in greeting relatives, friends and near and dear ones. On the second and third day of Eid, they rushed
to recreational places including ‘Queen of the Mountains’ from different areas to enjoy the Eid festivity.
While most of the families have been from the twin cities of Rawalpindi and Islamabad, some people from as far as Lahore have also made the journey.
Galiyat and surrounding areas including Nathiagali and the Hazara belt were the centers of attention for tourists. Bhurban, Ayubia, Mall Road, Kashmir Point, and Pindi Point were also packed with tourists.
However, access became a problem, as long queues of vehicles were seen at Satra Meel Toll Plaza on Murree Road.
Long queues of cars, vans, and buses were witnessed making their way to the region’s favorite tourist spot, adding a festive vibe to the town’s atmosphere.
