Patriata also known as New Murree is a hill station in northern Punjab, Pakistan. It is situated 15 kilometres (9.3 mi) south-east of Murree hill.[1][2] Patriata is located in Murree Tehsil which is a subdivision of Murree District. It is the highest point in the area and the hills stand 7,500 feet (2,300 m) above sea level.
Tourism[edit]
The cooler climate in Patriata makes this hill station a favorable tourist location compared to further south. The large tourist presence in Murree also makes Patriata a more attractive hub for many. A Gondola chair lift and cable car system allow visitors to access the highest points. The area is heavily forested and there are many monkeys and leopards in the area.[3]
