From the Ambassador of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan

Despite its unparalleled natural beauty and abundance of historical and cultural sites, Pakistan has long been out of the focus of global nature lovers and tourism enthusiasts. The situation is now fast changing. Millions of local and foreign tourists each year are thronging to explore its tourist attractions, stretching from the mighty Himalayas, Hindukush, and the Karakoram in the North to the vast alluvial delta of the Indus River, and beautiful beaches in the South to enjoy its extraordinary beauty and diverse cultures, history, and traditions.

The government of Pakistan has also taken several initiatives to promote tourism in the country, including opening new tourist destinations, building new tourism infrastructure, upgrading roads and airports, giving incentives to the hospitality industry, and facilitating visas for foreign tourists. Tourists from 175 countries including Indonesia can now obtain visas online or upon arrival.

I appreciate Mentari Travel Services for bringing out this brochure that explains what is there in Pakistan for various types of Indonesian tourists, including those interested in adventure tourism, religious tourism, and cultural tourism, and suggests how best to reach there. It is a great contribution to promoting tourism in Pakistan. I am confident that after reading this brochure, more Indonesian tourists will visit Pakistan and enjoy its vast topographical and cultural diversity.
