The extremists are destroying world's earliest remains in Pakistan and Afghanistan and the beautiful areas are now under complete fear and controlled by hardcore militants who know only one thing: destroy all beauties of the nature and history.

Swat is one of the most beautiful place of the Pashtoons. The terrorists are now in control there. They have terrorized people and all the tourist activities are fully down. People are living under fear and uncertainty.

According to a servey, thousands of tourists visited Swat valley, Bajaur, Mohmand and other beautiful tribal areas every year, but since the militancy is emerged, these places are turned into safe havens of extremists and terrorists. There are suidie attacks, kidnappings, beheadings, air strikes and bombings every day. When local people are so scared and leaving their homes, how tourists can visit these places and enjoy the beauties of the nature.
