Autumn in Gilgit Baltistan of Pakistan is something to behold. This is the time of year when the trees of poplar, apricot, mulberry, peach, apple, and plum burst forth into a riot of color with orange, rust, and red hues. The clear and bracing weather offers the best view of the surrounding mountains. One can find pink, white, red, yellow, and blue flowers dancing everywhere in the northern areas during autumn.

It applies perfectly to the Gilgit Baltistan of Pakistan during the autumn season. Can you see a fairyland in your real life? Yes, you can, but only in northern Pakistan, during the autumn season.
