$290 Luxury Pakistan Resort. This is NOT Switzerland.

  • Before doing any research I had no idea Pakistan had such beautiful landscape or the amazing Attabad Lake right up north in the Hunza Valley. I had to see it for myself. After suffering from food poisoning it was the right time to treat myself. I managed to score the President Suite at $290 a night and lived the life of luxury…. for a day.
    The location has to be one of the best in the world, but as always I keep it real and discuss the potential downsides to over development in the area without a sustainable appraoch. If you’re interested in a real, honest review of Attabad Lake and Luxus Resort I have it for you. Check it out!
    After my stay I decide to hitchhike further up north to check out another popular site in North Pakistan, Hussaini Suspension Bridge, hang out with locals and get myself a local Chitral hat in preparation for my ascent up Rakaposhi (next video)

    As a Pakistani American expat, I have to marvel at your decision to go to Pakistan after seeing the pink slip?? Not that I am complaining; I think you chose some 'off the beaten path' approach and kudos for that. A little suggestion: Always pay the locals in Pakistan the full price; I can see you are trying hard to do that but still leave full money with them. They are just too generous for their own good. Finally, those old squat toilets are really horrible. I can't imagine using them when my stomach is messed up. Thanks for the good work.

    • @ChrisDismissed
      @ChrisDismissed  9 месяцев назад +12

      Thanks for the advice 😊 I try my best to pay full and tip generously. I also don't want to disrespect / offend with not accepting the kind gestures. It's a fine balance thats for sure.

      squat toilets are actually what is recommended position during bowl movement. they are more modern than most people think just needs a new innovation like some kind of auto washer/cover. but the sitting position would actually make bowl movement easier and its easier on stomach you dont gotta push as hard

    Hello Chris......by the way....totally agree with your Lecture. Same thing happened to Saif-Ul-Malook lake in Naran.....Over-crowded, hotels built etc. These commodities should be built a mile away from the beautiful places like these. Nature needs space to nurture.

    Pakistan is an amazing country, Indian trolls must be very upset.

    The reason why Lexus is so expensive, actually Hunzai people do not sell their land outside the community. So, the Lexus owner (outsider) might have paid at least 7-8 greater than its actual land price to lure the land owner.

    Actually there was a village which was flooded by heavy rains and thus Attabad lake came into existence. Also lot of people died in those floods & those who survived migrated to other nearby towns or villages and some saw this as an opportunity & opened resorts or other businesses.

    Great video Chris! Attabad lake is truly stunning. The boys on the motorbikes were asking you how you got to to the lake not how you'll get to Gulmit. To address a few other points, tourists aren't allowed to go across that particular bridge because os safety concerns. Furthermore the shop owner should not have spoken about negative marketing. This beautiful hat has been worn for many many years and it's sad that it's now being equated to and is being sold as a symbol of the Taliban.

The owners know tourists don't have any other options that's why they are expensive but as more tourism comes in the country more hotels will be built there. Pakistan has so much potential to lead global tourism industry just infrastructure is not there. I hope government will focus on tourism providing more facilities to foreign tourists. Enjoy your journey. Thanks for showing the world what media don't show them.

    well your marketing things is very true in Pakistan, one of the biggest example of that happens in Murree near Islamabad they over develop it so much that it lost all it's beauty that place now look like a big city like Lahore, because it's near capital so it receiver a ton of tourists, they develop so much that you don't feel you are on a mountain any more and the same feeling like a big city. that's why that destination is not on my list anymore if i ever wish to go somewhere for outings, i mean what's the point that you travel so much to have the same vibes of the city i live in anyways poor people who only increase population and stuck in cycle of survival for generations
