This is all about how Attock is the famous city. The infra structure of the city is surrounded by the deserted mountains that's why the climate of this area varies in the summer and in the winter. Usually
in the summer there is maximum temperature of 50 Celsius, with very rare amount of rain happening to this area. The winter is also very strong in this area and its usually the dry winter. The spring season is the very good season for visit this city. Also economic point of view the things are very inexpensive and cheap in this area then any other city. Mostly the green vegetables and tasty fruits is very fresh and less paid too. The reason why because all of the chaach villages is surrounded by Attock so everyday fresh fruits and vegetables are supplied in a good amount. It is must to visit this area if you want the wives of both city and village. Also the food like as I mention is very tasty and mouth watering. I definatly come with the full recipes of this food which I mention specially KATWAA GOASH the most popular one. Try all food and places which I mention and believe me guys you going to love that.
