Pakistan has the most beautiful landscapes in the world, from high mountains, rivers, and deserts, to alluvial plains These areas of natural beauty and scenic views greatly promote tourism.

Due to terrorism in the past, tourists hesitated to come to Pakistan, which affected the overall economy. With solid measures taken by the previous governments and the help of the Pakistan army, the nation was able to restore peaceful conditions and, ultimately, give a boost to the tourism industry.

 Pakistan also had stringent visa policies in the past, which halted the tourism industry. However, the previous government opened the gates for tourists by easing these policies. They introduced visa-on-arrival and E-visa facilities. Tourists can now easily apply for visa and enjoy the spectacular beauty of the various areas of Pakistan.

Pakistan has introduced an online visa portal as well, where tourists can get their visas approved within 48 days.
