Sir, the picture of Harnoi is basically not Harnoi. It`s COMSATS UNI ATD.

This is actually Harnoi:

Have lived in abbottabad and still often visit. A very nice little city but recently too much overcrowded, a nightmare traffic as well.

Nice.. What about the street food

Did all these (except the honeymoon part). Won't recommend these packages (too expensive, only if you want to make an impression). What I will recommend is to go visit on your own , a good room in any resthouse will cost you 1000-2000 per night. (Visit when students are on leaves Feb-march and July-Aug; semester break. Prices will be low. Otherwise Abbotabad I really congested and traffic is really a headache). And all these places you can visit in 2 days by spending less then 3000-3500 (three of the above things you will be able to do without spending a penny as soon as you land in Abbotabad Ada).. This way spend less, get more.

OD office among those trees in below right corner. Phundi spot. On right side (some 15 meters away) perfect phundi spot called mall road ( you know why).

No. Just a ground now (last time I saw).

Nice.. What about the street food

Some famous places that serve good food are

Mughul karhai shop
