Hunza Velley Blossom Tours

The beginning of Cherry blossom signals the end of chilly winter weather in Hunza valley, Phandar valley, Skardu valley and in the other parts of Gilgit-Baltistan which means Spring is arrived. Blossom season (spring) starts from the mid March and ends by the last week of April. Cherry blossom viewing began in ancient times when aristocrats wrote poetry and sang songs under the flowering trees of Cherry. Many tourists from Japan, Thailand, Malayisa, Singapore, Vietnam and other countries around the world come to see Cherry blossom in Pakistan every year. Many people like cherry blossom because the shape and color of the petals reflect people’s ideal notion of purity and simplicity. Many are also touched by the blossom that they are so fragile short-lived scattering just a few days after the blooming. At the same time one can also view the blossom of Apricot, Almond, Apples and Pears in the valley of Hunza and other valleys of Gilgit Baltistan. We operate cherry blossom / spring tours on fixed departure basis and on request as private tour. To know about our fixed departure tour date please write to us or call us anytime.
