Experience China’s Rich Culture and Scenic Beauty for Just Rs. 60,000 – Pakistanis Can Now Travel to China!
The Khunjerab Pass, which is on the border between Pakistan and China, has been a popular destination for travelers from both countries for years. However, due to the COVID-19 epidemic, the pass has been blocked since 2020. The good news is that both nations have since decided to reopen the pass for travel and other purposes from April 01, 2023.
To improve tourism, a new private bus service will be launched between Islamabad and Tashkurgan in China beginning on May 13, 2023. The service will provide a practical and affordable option for anyone wishing to visit the neighboring country. A mini-Utong bus with a capacity of 28 seats will be used as the bus service initially. The entire trip, including immigration, would take about 38 hours, and passengers will also stay one night at the Sost border. The trip’s expected fee of Rs. 60,000 makes it a great option for those who want to travel on a low budget.
But what about the visa requirements for traveling to China? Well, the visa application process for China has been simplified, making it easier for Pakistanis to obtain a visa. The Chinese embassy in Pakistan has introduced new visa categories, including a five-year multiple-entry visa, a two-year multiple-entry visa, and a six-month visa. The visa fees for a single-entry visa have been reduced from Rs. 14,000 to Rs. 9,000, and the fees for a double-entry visa have been reduced from Rs. 21,000 to Rs. 12,000. So now it is easier and more affordable for Pakistanis to travel to China.
The new bus service between Islamabad and Tashkurgan will provide an exciting opportunity for Pakistanis to explore China’s rich cultural heritage, stunning landscapes, and vibrant cities. Pakistanis can now visit some of the most popular tourist destinations in China, such as the Great Wall of China, the Terracotta Army, the Forbidden City, and the Yangtze River. They can also experience the unique culture and traditions of China by attending festivals, visiting local markets, and trying out authentic Chinese cuisine.
In addition to being a popular tourist destination, China is also an important trading partner for Pakistan. With the reopening of the Khunjerab Pass and the launch of the new bus service, Pakistanis can now travel to China for business purposes more easily and at a lower cost. This will help strengthen the economic ties between the two countries and create new opportunities for collaboration and investment.
The relationship between the two nations, which has been progressively developing in recent years, is also set to be strengthened. China and Pakistan have strong cultural, economic, and strategic relationships with one another. This new bus service is expected to strengthen these relationships and promote cultural exchanges between the two countries.
In conclusion, the reopening of the Khunjerab Pass and the launch of the new bus service between Islamabad and Tashkurgan is great news for Pakistanis who want to explore China. With the simplified visa application process, reduced visa fees, and affordable bus service, it is now easier than ever for Pakistanis to travel to China. This will help strengthen the cultural, economic, and strategic relationships between the two countries, creating new opportunities for collaboration and investment.
