The tourism sector in Gilgit-Baltistan is set for major development as the federal government, through the Special Investment Facilitation Council (SIFC), initiates reconstruction of govt guest houses.
This project, in collaboration with Green Tourism Private Limited, aims to upgrade facilities, making the region more appealing to tourists.
Known for its breathtaking landscapes and often referred to as a paradise for tourists, Gilgit-Baltistan boasts natural beauty that leaves a lasting impression on visitors. Despite this, many scenic spots remain under-visited due to poor infrastructure.

The SIFC's efforts to enhance tourist accommodations are expected to reveal these hidden gems, offering tourists excellent facilities and improving accessibility. This move is anticipated to significantly boost the local tourism industry.
However, the initiative faces resistance from certain factions within the tourism sector, accused of spreading misinformation to safeguard personal interests. Despite these challenges, the residents of Gilgit-Baltistan, recognized for their education and awareness, are supportive of the development efforts.
With the upcoming improvements, Gilgit-Baltistan is poised to attract more visitors, showcasing its stunning beauty to a global audience.
