Mingaora is a nice place to explore in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province of Pakistan. It is teeming with splendid sights and it is considered a melting pot of culture. The rural and urban areas not just in the city but also in the whole province are truly inviting for some great adventure.
Mingaora is located along the banks of River Swat. It is about two kilometers from Saidu Sharif. Mingaora was once a tourist hotspot with its cultural diversity as well as its fantastic landscapes. In recent years, the tourism industry was put in jeopardy with the Taliban and Pakistan forces fighting over the territory. Today, you will need clearance from your country of origin to be able to take cheap flights to Mingaora. Travel advisories are usually up to give tourists some form of warning.
With the city always in a brink of a war, it is very important that you take caution before you visit. The conflicts, however, could not prevent tourists from going out their way. The city environment is pretty inviting.
Khyber Pass – This is an old interior city that leads into the country of Afghanistan. It is popular among merchants and travelers looking for a gastronomic adventure. Sheep meat and karahi meat grilled into perfection are the food treats you can fetch on the streets.
Taj Chowk – This is another interesting place. It is teeming with establishments selling all kinds of goods. You can have your fill of semi precious stones in various shops all over Taj Chowk.
Swat Museum – This is an important site, which houses some of the most important archaeological finds that will best explain the ancient culture in the city and in the whole Swat district.
Miandam Miandam – If you are looking for some great fun in the sun, this is the place to be. It is over an hour’s drive from the city but the trip is definitely worth it as cheap flights to Mingaora are.
One piece of advice: Before you take the trip, it is advisable that you book for your any of the available hotels in Mingaora. They are not too many and if you are unlucky, you will not get a room to stay for the night.
