Pakistan's best-kept secret
Ziarat is extraordinary — 5,000-year-old juniper trees, clean mountain air, cool climate, and the emotional visit to Jinnah's Residency. Very few tourists come here which makes it even more special. The forest walks are peaceful and beautiful.

Underrated gem of Balochistan
The drive from Quetta through the mountains is beautiful. Ziarat itself is serene and charming. The Residency is moving to visit. Best in spring when juniper trees bloom. Highly recommend for a quiet, authentic experience.
