Note:
Due to climate change, the weather in the mountainous and hilly regions has become more unpredictable. Because of this, we are facing some problems of bad weather, heavy rainfall, landslides, blocked highways, flight delays and even cancellations for a day. Sometimes, because of the road traffic, we are unable to arrive on time. It may happen any time of the year because we cannot predict the weather conditions and other situations.Therefore, if possible, we would like to suggest adding an extra supplementary day before your return international flight. If everything goes well, you have a beautiful day to visit any interesting place in the historical city.
