A VISIT TO HILL STATION


A VISIT TO HILL STATION:
 It is a great pleasure to visit a hill station in summer. It was in these months that i visited the Murree hills. I went there to spend a part of my summer vacation. To enjoy this visit fully, i also invited some close friends. We left Lahore for Murree bu bus and reached Rawalpindi at about eleven o' clock. As we knew that Murree was costly place, we purchased many things of daily need from Rawalpindi.
     We reached Murree at about 3 p.m. the same day. It was fine cloudy day and the weather was very pleasent. We put up at an old hotel,called the sunny view. After having rested there for a while, we came out to have a view of the hills. It was a new experience for or one was in level with the door of the other. This looked very interesting. The valley below the hills looked like a great cup full of beautiful flowers and flowing streams. On the first day we walked to the Kashmir point and enjoyed ourselves with its cafes and tea houses. I wondered how so many educated and cultured people had come together at such a far off hill station at one and the same time.
  In the evening when we were returning to our hotel. It is grew dark and gentle shower of rain began to fall. We hurried back and reached our hotel in ten minutes. Then we changed our dress as it had become quite wet due to rain. The night was quite cold and i had to cover myself with a blanket. Throughout the night it continued raining but when it was dawn the rain stopped. We were very glad to see this sudden change of weather. After our break fast we went out to see the Sanitorium down in the valley. This is a beautiful little spot situated in a fine valley. There are thick forest of pine trees, and entire area is green and charming. There are also many fruit gardens on the slopes. On our way back we crossed two fast flowing streams. The water of these streams was very cold and clean but it was not so deep.
   After three day's stay in the hills we returned to Lahore, which was as hot and dry as we hand left it. Any how our shorts visit to the Murree hills was a good change and i shall ever remember the beautiful, sunny view and the Kashmir point. These were perhaps the most well spent days of my life..... :)
