Hazara motorway is 180km long. It extends from Hassan Abdal to Thakot Mansehra. Now you can drive from Mansehra to Islamabad in just three hours.

 Hazara motorway is one of the most beautiful roads I had ever seen in my life. It covers the beautiful valleys of Abbottabad and Mansehra. Havellian, Haripur, and Hassan abdal also come in the way. 

Driving along with high and beautiful mountains is a different type of experience.

 There are two tunnels of almost one kilometer in length in Hazara motorway near Mansehra. There is proper light management in these tunnels.

 For sometimes we forget that we are from third-world countries by seeing the infrastructure of motorways and those marvelous tunnels.

The Hazara motorway is included in CPEC Program. So it has so much importance commercially as well as naturally.

 The staff of the motorway is cooperative. This motorway shortened the distance of Mansehra from many cities of Pakistan.

    

So I recommend you to have a drive on this beautiful route of Mansehra once to see what beauty Mansehra wants to show us.
