Murree Tour Day Trip
If you are in Islamabad for a few days and are interested in nature and scenery, the Murree Tour is another choice. Murree's history as a hill station is linked with the British Raj's colonial heritage. Murree was founded in the mid-nineteenth century as a summer retreat for British soldiers and officials seeking relief from the searing heat of the Indian plains. Murree was a perfect getaway due to its temperate climate, rich forests, and breathtaking panoramas of the surrounding hills.

Holiday Overview
Murree grew into a key administrative and military center during the British colonial era. The strategic location of the town, tucked in the Himalayan Pir Panjal range, provided a vantage point for overseeing the region and maintaining connection with various regions of the British Indian Empire.
Murree evolved through time into a picturesque hill station equipped with colonial buildings, quaint homes, and well-kept gardens. The Mall Road, a gorgeous promenade dotted with stores, cafes, and colonial-era buildings, became the social and business hub of the town. The splendor of the colonial era may still be seen in sites such as St. Luke's Church and the General Post Office.
Murree's popularity grew over time, transcending its colonial beginnings. Since Pakistan's independence in 1947, the hill station has been a popular destination for both local and international visitors. Murree's stunning vistas, pleasant weather, and closeness to major cities such as Islamabad and Rawalpindi all led to its popularity as a weekend getaway and family vacation destination.
The town's tourism business grew, with a variety of lodgings, restaurants, and recreational activities available. Tourists found a variety of events that tailored to their interests, from horseback riding through pine forests to exploring the Murree Wildlife Park.
