We have discussed about tourism trips to Kaghan-Naran valleys at ATP before. Recently, my friend Shoukat Raza sent me this captivating photo from Naran, Pakistan. A road side drinks seller near Naran has carved out this refrigerator from a natural glacier.

    about 10 years, I ate strawberries which were kept in the cold running water of River swat. I have yet to eat a better strawberry.

    nice photo, I remember seeing this on my trips to Naran and Swat about 10 years ago. Another tactic is to keep the bottles in a basket in the cold running streams, then take them out and give them to customer!

    In the north of Pakistan it is very normal to find intellegent solutions which can be sometimes very surprising for others as they imagine that in the north people are less clever, the world has witnessed the survival capacity of Azad Kashmiris, it is indeed beyond our imaginations.
