At least 30 inches of snow was recorded in one of
Pakistan’s tourist hot-spots; Naran, breaking records of October and
leaving at least 1,000 tourists stranded in Kaghan Valley. Long lines of
vehicles of all sorts were stuck and stranded with piles of snow
covering the roads – which was soon followed by snowfall taking over the
cars as well. Pak Army is now at work evacuating the tourists safely
from their respective whereabouts. These people, who went to Naran to
have a good time with their friends and families, are now turning back
to their respective cities due to the harsh weather conditions. The
question arises.. is the record-breaking snowfall in Naran pleasure or a
pain?

Snowfall covering the tables, chairs and ground
|
 |
Streets and roads covered with snow left most of the shops and
businesses closed
|
 |
|
The extremely harsh weather has left most
tourists stranded inside their rooms
|
 |
Tourists who were not in their hotels were left stranded in the
mountains, covered in snow
|
 |
At least 500 vehicles were stuck bumper to bumper on the road that leads
out of Naran
|
 |
With snow covering the roads, a lot of big vehicles lost grip and
slipped out of control
|
 |
People who wanted to leave early were out of luck as snow piled over
cars, covering them completely.
|
 |
Another example of why people couldn’t leave or travel at all.

However, as they say – when in Rome, do as the Romans do! Some people
found the joys of life and served their purpose of coming to Naran.
