You want to see the mountains and the city side by side? Then Abottabad is surely the best option. Bustling urban centers and snow-capped surroundings make Abbottabad a complete package. Let us tell you a love tale! The sun loves this city and clouds never go from here. In the evenings, winds will cool your tired tourist mind. For you, Abbottabad offers many attractions - Miranjani Top, Thandiani, Harnoi, Shimla Hills, Lady garden public park, St. Luke Church, Chinar Road, and whatnot.

Let's make an escape to one of the most beautiful regions of Galiyat - Miranjani. It has a track 4.69 km long and a sky-high peak of 9,816 ft. Even in summers, some patches remain covered in snow. Snow in summers? Isn't it a treat to the eyes? Green patches are so thick and trees are extremely tall to keep you in awe.

Thandiani. The name is enough. Cool heaven of the North, this hill spot is a perfect picnic spot. If you crave less crowd and deep silence then Thandiani. You can walk and appreciate the green meadows. While camping, the foggy mornings or if you are lucky the pleasant dawns will make you feel blessed. The curvy roads, ah! What a scenic view they are! Thandiani is cold but lovely and will give you a refreshing view of natural beauty.

Now, we are going to the famous Shimla Hills. What's so special about them? They give you the most beautiful view of Abottabad. Just imagine yourself standing and looking at twinkling lights with a cup of tea. The snowy mountains of Kaghan and Naran can be seen all the time from here. Different food stalls and recreational spots are set here to give you a break from your routine. This place will make you realize that mountains and cities can coexist.

Just a half-hour away from Abbottabad, Harnoi is a cooler for skin and eyes, specifically in summers. You will see natural springs and clean waving waters all around here. It is a favorite picnic spot for families. Just keep some extra clothes in case you are a water lover.

In the footsteps of the hills and the heart of the city, Ilyasi Mosque beats the blue of the sky. With its blue tiles and a fountain in the center, Ilyasi Mosque is a pleasing place to visit. Besides the mosque, there are some pakora sellers. Buy pakoras and sit over the hills, and you will have a scenic view of Ilyasi Masjid and Abbottabad. A spiritual cleansing, maybe?
