Welcome to District Orakzai:


`

SEQUENCE OF PRESENTATION

INTRODUCTION

District Orakzai takes its name from Orakzai Tribes inhabiting the area. It was declared as  Agency on 1st December, 1973 which is the second smallest in area after Bajaur. It is bounded by Kurram in the West, Khyber in the North, District Kohat on the South and Peshawar in the East.

The whole of the territory of Orakzai is a mountainous tract dissected by numerous dry water courses.

The territory is mountainous and has a total area 1538 square kilometers. The two major streams are the Mastura and Khanki Toi both of which originate in the hills to the West and run to the East.

Orakzai adorned with snow-clad mountains, with streams and rivers, the untouched valley with colorful flowers. Orakzai will boast the tourist destinations that will make one fall in love instantly. Orakzai tourism isn’t just about embracing the impeccable natural beauty but also the rich culture that is wreathed with rare handicrafts and delectable cuisines. Even though zillions of words can be written to best describe the beauty of Orakzai but to witness what magic of district possesses, one has to see it, to believe it.

The major allurement for tourists lies in its mighty mountains, magnificent trees, streams, unspoiled valleys and a lot more that makes one discover their real self-amidst the heavenly setting.

Dominated largely by the long stretches of scenic and splendid mountains, the Orakzai is one of the ideal destination in the Merged Tribal Districts prefer for nature lovers where one can witness a serene, scenic and sensual landscape that can remain etched in the memory forever.

Kalaya is the most beautiful valley in Orakzai District surrounded by thick forests and large agricultural land.

Historic importance: many shrines and Darbars. Possesses historic importance due to the Fort. Orakzai could be the best attraction for tourism and restoration of peace in the area but such areas need development in terms of tourism.

Tourism is still an underdeveloped sector, especially in comparison to its potential. Apart from institutional, policy and shifting game, it also severely lacks infrastructure and services.

Most of the tourist sites even do not have access and good quality restaurants and hotels. People have to survive on minimal standard of living which are discouraging signs for the development of tourism.

Access to tourist sites is another major issue. Many beautiful sites in northern areas are un-accessible due to bad infrastructure. Even, the infrastructure in plain areas or in  deserts is also very poor.

Last but not least, would be strong commitment, which is obvious now, and financial support will determine the future of tourism in Orakzai.

Development of tourism will help to consume huge number of uneducated youth with minimum investment which will contribute to alleviate poverty.
