Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan said on Tuesday that the Pakistani government is studying the feasibility of establishing ski resorts to promote winter tourism in the South Asian country.
Khan mentioned that the Deosai Plain of Gilgit-Baltistan Plateau was the country’s first winter ski trip.
He shared a series of photos of local and foreign skiers playing on the snow-covered Deosai.

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