ISLAMABAD: Demand for Pakistan Tourism Development Corporation (PTDC) motels is on the rise due to the summer season.
There has been an enormous rise in the number of tourists as most of the people like to enjoy summer holidays in destinations like Murree, Ayubia, Nathiagali, Swat Valley, Naraan, Kaghaan and other northern areas.
Talking to APP, a PTDC official said, the PTDC motels are earning huge profits since the beginning of summer and it has been difficult for PTDC motels’ management to entertain all the tourists at the same time due to limited lodging. He said Kalam is one of the most visited places in the current season and it has all the features to be called Pakistan’s top tourist spot. Due to improved law and order in the country especially in hilly areas, the number of tourists has increased from last year, he added.
PTDC has a chain of 39 motels and three restaurants for tourists. All of them provide top-notch facilities to both domestic and foreign nationals.
