Hey Afro, don't expect anything in Bhurban apart from PC but it's the best place in Northen areas if you just wanna relax. Since you are going that way, you might as well check out patriata. Yes you can walk in and find accomodation there, lots of places there. If you really want to see smazing views then you MUST go to Naran/Kaghan/Saiful Malook. Bhurban/Thandiani etc are good but not even half as good as Naran/Kaghan but if you prefer just to relax then you have planned your trip well.
Hey regarding Naran/Kaghan, we don't mind travelling any place far, but the only problem is we don't know what the situation is there right now, we have heard Sawat and places nearby there are pretty unstable. Is naran/kaghan a safe place to visit right now? Esp as we'd be considered foreigners, even though we are pakistani?
