Banjosa Lake Rawalakot | Pakistan

Pakistan Tourist Attraction Place at Banjosa Lake Rawalakot

It is one of the most beautiful valleys of Azad Kashmir with captivating waterfalls and spectacular views. Rawlakot has an Agriculture University and several other colleges and secondary educational institutes. It is famous for trekking, hiking, paragliding and water based activities. This place expects a high number of tourists during peak times.

Banjosa lake is a very overrated place. Lake is artificial and not scenic at all also water is quite dirty. The place is very over crowded by local visitors. Road towards lake is quite bad in shape.

Rawalakot is a valley situated in the heart of district Poonch of Azad Jammu and Kashmir. It is shaped like a saucer with an altitude of 1615 meters. It is accessible through Islamabad by a three and a half hour long drive. The weather in the valley stays cold throughout the year with an average temperature of 20°C in summers.

Its one of the mesmerizing lakes in Azad Kashmir. The lake is surrounded by mountains all around. This gives the lake a beautiful greenish shade. Boating option is available. Number of restaurants are available here, so one can find different food varieties. Also nearby rest houses and hotels are available if someone want to stay for a night. If somebody likes to take a stroll trough woods around the lake, its a good option as well. 

Note, P.S: Please don't put everything on the authorities. We as a people also need to take care for the cleanliness of lake and surroundings. Its a beautiful place and lets keep it that way.
