Have you ever visited a place that seems like a part of heaven? That makes you wonder if an earthy place is that beautiful then how mesmerising the Heaven would be?
I have once visited a place like that and we all call it Naltar. I don’t know what Naltar means, but if ever I get the opportunity to put the meaning, I will definitely call it “The Earthy Heaven’ This is how beautiful Naltar is.
Blue Lake, Satrangi Lake, and Pari Lake all got my heart. The beauty of the valley cannot be captured in any camera or words. It can be a version of someone’s heaven. The forest-like places, the water streams, and the weather… Everything was enchanting. It is not possible for you to go there and will not wish to spend eternity.
I will definitely go there again and spend more time there.
What was the best part? There was no internet connectivity. Not at least for tourists. The place is just to cut your ties from the digital world and praise Allah for how beautifully he made the earth for his people.
