Patriata: Where the natural beauty is fading! 2021
What is the reason for the patriarchy? When I started researching in this regard, I came across a story.
The fact is that once in a beautiful and charming area full of greenery and mountains, a blonde arrived in the British era about a century ago. He fled the area and asked a local woman walking by the name of the area. Now she was going somewhere to fetch flour on the head of Hindko village women. Even her angels did not know what the Englishman asked in English, but from her understanding and consciousness she must have guessed that this is what she asked. What's on his head? So he very kindly told the Englishman, 'Son Atta!' Now that the son was British and the British were the sole owner of these valleys at that time, no one even tried to know his real name and the name of this area was changed from the British to 'Patar Ata' meaning Patriata.
There is no confirmation of how true this story is and how false it is, but the story is definitely interesting and the area is even more beautiful and charming than this story.
They had been sitting on the shores of Patriata for 3 months, but the grief of work did not give them a chance to look at it. After much effort and struggle, we persuaded the three elders of the house, namely Mian and 2 children, and one day we finally left for Patriata or New Murree.

I don't know if this is a modern day tragedy or if it has always been the case that children have no interest in anything other than car windows. From the outside, whether it is Italy, France or Switzerland, but no place attracts their attention. Perhaps it is the work of the elders that never tires of looking out the window at the lush green trees, forests, mountains and valleys.
Our children have become accustomed to seeing everything on a small screen in their hands. So the children who take the world's treasures out of the tablet's basket are not attracted out of the window. Has anyone ever noticed that the worst addiction today is the addiction to the internet, tablets and smartphones?
So the only way to persuade him on this trip was to hold a tablet in his hand for some work and promise a chairlift.
When he reached the chair lift point of New Murree, as soon as he got down at the gate, as usual, Mian advised him to leave the luggage in the car and pick it up. Now, since we are also afraid of trouble, we make mistakes and come to Mian's words every time. So we left our snacks, umbrellas, jackets and bags in the car and arrived empty handed to ride the chairlift.
When the ticket reached home, it was found that the cable car was closed due to some technical fault. Maybe we only had to ride in the chairlift on this trip. As it was a holiday, there was a huge crowd and a long line of people sitting in the chairlift was waiting for their turn.
High-rise chairlift
We also enjoyed this ride once and a half in our children's ages. The next 15, 20 years were spent in grief and grief. That's why the habit of such adventures is almost gone, but now when children have to go to the theme park at an early age and have to sit on a fast and dangerous ride, they have to sit together.
Although this chairlift was not as dangerous as Ferrari's high-speed roller coaster and Warner Bro's slide falling from the dark and dangerous skies, I was so terrified of traveling so slowly to such heights that I grabbed the rod harder than my daughter and kept reciting Ayatollah Al-Kursi all the way.
What is youth, when man neither cares about dangers nor worries about them? With increasing age, as man becomes enlightened with intellect, consciousness and knowledge, he becomes more and more cowardly. Especially where there is a fashion for spoiling and spoiling things and the majority of the things that are spoiled by repairing spoiled things are cut off, the mere knowledge of all human endeavors is wasted due to some technical or climatic malfunction. It has the potential to collapse or deteriorate.
Sitting on this flying cot that slowly slides towards the valleys and mountains, man certainly looks at heaven, especially if July is the month of August and the day of the confluence of green clouds and rain. In this 15 to 20 minute air tour you can definitely get a chance to see the most beautiful views of the world.
Certainly, man sits on a cot flying slowly towards the valleys and the mountains.
Security checkpoints have been set up at 4 to 5 places along the way but we did not see any guards at any of the checkpoints. Instead of these guards, the poor were seen at almost every milestone with a large number of children.
Well, all the beauty of the scenery is in the freshness and greenery of these lush trees. In the summer, as their beauty peaks, this chairlift ride becomes a sight to behold.
When we got to the top, we were a little disappointed because the government did not provide us with a place to sit. There are so many tea stalls and dhabs on this top that as soon as one descends, one finds a place to sit where one can keep one's feet so that one does not fall on any dhaba or tea stall. When someone comes so far, he will definitely drink tea in such a cool, cool and beautiful place, especially when the bag is also left in the car, but first of all, it is necessary to arrange a good place for him to sit. Should.
Dhabas and stalls are necessary after a proper rest and setting area, but now the situation is that there is no official arrangement to sit on the top except God's land and mountains. The whole place and the chairs are owned by the dhabs. So if someone is out of breath, someone has a cold or a small child is crying, then they will have to sit on a chair in one of the dhabas and will have to buy something against their will. Wouldn't it be nice if the government had built huts and benches on this peak and in the hills around it like parks and gardens. That way, people will have a better place to sit, and not everyone will be forced to gather on the top of the hill.

Besides, there is no proper arrangement for dumping garbage on this entire top and the valley has turned itself into a garbage dump. The people have also shown great generosity by throwing garbage and used diapers everywhere. Maybe we think that only the place where we stand has the right to be safe. The rest of the world is a garbage dump. What we see there is that an educated looking woman took the baby a little farther, changed his diaper and twisted it in her mind and threw it away to another world which ate the bill and went to another nearby road. Fell down
The diapers of the children of such well-educated families eat and drink. The dumpsters have neither felt the need nor are they obliged to dispose of their waste at their own risk, which is why there are piles of rubbish at the back of every dump.
We make a lot of noise that Pakistan is the best place for tourism, but when whites find trash here, how do you convince them to pick up the garbage and bounce it off their heads and sit on a hill to meet their needs? And that it will not affect the civilization and security of your land, city and country, including its moral character.
Believe me, the blonde of any civilized nation will never be able to do this and this will be the unpleasant impression that he will carry with him because the whole world does not consider the earth as a free garbage dump like us. We have not been able to convince our children to this day that a single harmless chewing gum can be thrown on any corner without any major damage. Can't
By the way, if the Prime Minister had started recruiting new staff only for cleaning such places, hundreds of jobs would have come out. After all, the UAE has distributed thousands of jobs across South Asia just for cleaning. Pakistan is a big country and it has a large number of poor people. It would be great if new effective departments were created and staffed to clean all the tourist destinations full of beautiful scenery.

You may have heard of the fighting in Murree, how tourists and locals get into trouble. How do these fights happen? We tell you As soon as I reached the top, I had to order a cup of tea and water for the chair. It was time to pay the bill, camping on a corner to sit, drinking tea, avoiding the piles of rubbish and seeing the beautiful scenery here and there for a while. Mian found the bill a bit suspicious. If we were, Meth would give it quietly because he was weak, but it was Mian Sahib whose basic knowledge is Meth. There was a difference of Rs. On the way back, they sat there again. The same waiter again put the same profit in the same tea bill. That is, he did not even care that my lie had just been caught.
Not only that, horses are forcibly brought in front of you to sit! Now even the children look at you with greedy eyes. You also think let's have some fun. When asked about the fare, the owner of the horse insists that sit down, sit down, there is no fare for a ship. You also think that in such and such a place 200 children had taken a swing. Let's double it, it would be 400, but when you come down after riding one kilometer, it turns out that you have three or four horses of 2, 2 thousand.
Now you must have understood why these fights take place. Therefore, in order to protect your safety and your halal earnings, you should collect and subtract whatever bill comes and do not even touch the horse until you know its flow from the mouth of its owner, otherwise the next day's newspaper I don't want to hear from you.
Do not even touch the horse until you know its flow from the owner's mouth
After escaping from the hills, we moved a little further. The clouds were playing to our right and left, and their playfulness made us feel cool in July. In such a short time, the changes spread around began to accumulate and these soft and gentle changes started raining down on us.
Now we strongly remember the bag we left in the car. We have been accustomed to living in the lukewarm desert of the UAE for many years, where the rain came only occasionally to see the face, and they, too, could see only through the mirror due to the compulsions of the laborers, We kept counting the sum of millions for the job, so for such a weather we were quite non-existent, but more afraid than ordinary people.
Considering these areas as natural places, we think that all the work here should be done in a natural way by human beings. To be swept away with, to be blown away with the wind. But we didn't want to be swept away, so we found a small place to hide our heads under a thatched roof. It was also thankful that there was light rain, no storm or hurricane, otherwise we would have heard about what could have happened in such a situation.

Our tour was limited to a couple of rounds around the same hill, not daring to go beyond the crowds because we didn't have the courage to meet the beasts in the forest, so we stayed close to the people, but we must see where the people are not. Garbage piles were also there. However, on their way back to New Murree, they boarded a chairlift to complete the tour.
The view of the return on the chairlift was not definite on departure. The whole valley of Puri was offering a very enchanting view from the heights. Unfortunately, we had finished all the charging of our camera going up and down there, otherwise we would have shown you what kind of paradise God has blessed Pakistan with.
The vast expanse of Patriata was wide open and it was heartening for the viewer to get lost in the scene. Now that we had a little bit of nerves, we were encouraged to absorb this scene with all our might, so we watched it with all our heart, so much so that even the voices of the passers-by passing by failed to attract us.
When they returned home, they were very hungry, so they stayed in a restaurant on the way. The commotion had begun again and the scenes were hidden in the mist of the rain.
We have endured the typical fog of Dubai and Abu Dhabi, which used to be cold inside the car and warm when you open the window, but this beautiful misty fog seemed to be part of a fairy tale. We sat on the edge of the fog and ate food and thanked God for all His blessings and went home praying that God would enable us to protect all His blessings! Amen.
