Recently, Gilgit-Baltistan’s Ministry of Tourism recently organized a skiing event to encourage tourism in Deo-sai National Park.

The Deosai Plateau borders the Karakoram Mountains, west of the Himalayas.

Deosai snows most of the year. Due to extreme temperatures, this is an amazing land with an area of 3,000 square kilometres without trees.

Although these photos are about the beauty of this place, the government plans to make the most of it by establishing successive tourism projects in the next few years.
