Hotels in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan

Khyber Pakhtunkhwa sits in northwestern Pakistan, with a climate that varies from hot summers (up to 40°C/104°F) in Peshawar to snowy winters (down to -5°C/23°F) in the mountains-it's famous for the Khyber Pass, ancient Buddhist stupas, and the Swat Valley, often called 'Switzerland of the East.' In winter, you can ski at Malam Jabba, where the snowpack is deep from December to February, while summer brings perfect trekking through the green hills of Swat Valley. Spring (March-May) and autumn (September-November) offer mild weather for exploring Peshawar's Qissa Khwani Bazaar or the 2,000-year-old Takht-i-Bahi monastery ruins.
