My old trusted Charade. She has taken me everywhere in this country. I went upto Maalam Jabba and back on CNG on it (Mashallah).

The sunsets are as awesome as the mornings.

??? i think its Nowshera-Mardan-Malakand-Mingora.
btw, pictures are good. its been a long time I haven't been to Swat, major reason being the condition of the road

PTDC motels have a certain standard. Maalam Jabba is not as good as it used to be. Maintenance and all. Economy room without TV is I think 1500; the condition is not really good. Carpet was ripped a bit as well. Standard room was 3750 and pretty good. TV and attached bath; Radiator type room heater. Then there was the deluxe for I guess 4500 or sumthin like that. The relatively new addition is Huts which are sumthin like 4750.

The food is average to below average. Need any more info? post again

I think that with the pics and all the travellers should also post information like accomodation, travelling tips etc. for the benefit of viewership... Cheers!
