    • By Plane

      The small domestic airport is currently not receiving flights.

    • By Road

      Buses and minibuses make the scenic journey regularly from Islamabad (4-5 hours).

      If you're self-driving, the route via [wiki=c86c718e1bba8335d2ca89abb70c8042]Murree[/wiki] is probably the quickest. [wiki=36ad26c7a53b71790ca4c10e29bbe6cb]Kohala[/wiki] is the entry point into Azad Kashmir, where you'll need to get through a checkpoint.

      On your own transport you need an hour minutes to reach Murree. After Murree the road becomes thin and winding (and very scenic). Give yourself 2 hours to reach Kohala Bridge and another hour to reach Muzaffarabad. Its approximately 4 hours in your own car. The road is in the process of repair/upgrading so there are slow, unpaved and bumpy sections. Driving this route in daylight, especially for your first time, is highly recommended.

      You can adopt the route Islamabad - Abbottabad - Mansehra - Gari Habibullah - Muzaffabad as well.

    Muzaffarabad Fort There are two historical forts on opposite sides of the Neelum River. Red Fort and Black Fort The construction of the Red Fort was finally completed in 1646 by Sultan Muzaffar Khan, the founder of Muzaffarabad. After the Mughals took over Kashmir, the fort lost its importance. The Mughals were more interested in Kabul, Bukhara, and Badakshan. During the period of Durrani rule, however, the fort once again assumed its importance. Maharaja Gulab Singh and Rambir Singh, the Dogra rulers, reconstructed and extended the fort for their political and military operations. Towards the middle of 1947, the Dogra forces left, leaving the fort abandoned. The architecture of the fort shows that great experts in design and structure participated in its construction. It is surrounded on three sides by the Neelum River formerly known as the Kishenganga River. The northern part of the fort had terraces with steps leading to the bank of the river. The eastern side was very well protected from the hazards of flood waters, but some parts on the north side have suffered damage. There used to be an inn at the entrance to the fort, but only traces of that structure remain now.

    The Pearl Continental has Chinese & Continental restaurants (with amazing views). Neelum View Hotel (which is no longer a hotel) has a nice terrace and OK food.

    Pakistani and Kashmiri food is available everywhere. Many restaurants offer Chinese and Italian dishes as well.

    If you are tourist here, please go to some reputed restaurants and ask what is freshly cooked.

    Chicken Karahi is a dish recommended for Pakistanis and Kashmiris as it can be cooked easily and one can see this being cooked.

    Kashmiri Nan are wonderful in taste.

    Try Kashmiri Pink Tea. You can take Kashmiri Kulcha as snack. Kashmiri Kulcha is different from Kulcha sold in Lahore or Gujranwala.

    If you have time and money, try typical Kashmri Dishes like Goshtawa, etc. (but its hard to find the real thing).
    Goshtawa can be found in Kashmiri bazaar. Its in the middle of the city. You can reach there by taking a route of Upper Adda near AJK University or through Famous Madina Market. you can also find above mentioned Kashmiri tea, Kulcha & Kashmiri Bakar khani at same place.
