Azad Jammu & Kashmir

Azad Jammu and Kashmir is a region rich in natural beauty.

Its snow covered peaks, dense forests, winding rivers, turbulent foaming streams, sweet scented valleys, velvet green plateaus and climate varying from arctic to tropical all join together to make it an excellent tourist attraction. Valleys like Neelum, Jhelum, Leepa, Rawalakot, Banjosa, Samahni and Baghser offer delightful scenic beauty and provide landscapes that are a pleasure to a discerning tourist’s eyes. Azad Kashmir is also blessed with a varied mountainous landscape ranging from low hills to high mountains (2000 to 6000 metres) most suitable for adventure sports like climbing, trekking, mountaineering, summer camping and hiking. Blessed with river and streams, it offers great potential for water sports, especially rafting, canoeing and kayaking.

The capital of the Azad Jammu  and Kashmir, Muzaffarabad, is situated at the confluence of the Jhelum and Neelum Rivers and has been named after Sultan Muzaffar Khan, a chief of the Bombay Dynasty (1652). There are two forts, namely, the Red and Black Fort, situated on opposite sides of the Neelum River. The Neelum River streams through the town and joins the river Jhelum at Domel. The Neelum River plays a dominant role in the micro climate of Muzaffarabad.
