First of all Don’t Go to Murree

Even though our ‘beloved Murree’ is only an hour away from the nations capital. I believe it is the worse possible and most overrated hill station in the country. Yes it is gorgeous with its mountains, pine trees and lovely weather. It has recently gotten polluted and there is no privacy as it is swamped by scores of tourists all year long. The prices have been unreasonable from day one but now there have been reports of the locals abusing guests and families for quite some time now.Â
