Shortly, these destinations will be bustling with tourists.
The department also stated that Soon, they will organize events in the newly selected off-beat destinations to put them on the map, and these events will help them reach various corners of the world.

Some places, including the Bangus Valley in Kupwara and the Gurez Valley in Bandipora district, are famous but receive little attention from the tourism department. Bangus and Gurez will be among the 7–10 destinations that will developed by the tourism department in the Kashmir Valley.
Locals have expressed that both places have vast potential for tourism but need attention from the Jammu and Kashmir administrations. They have mentioned that only a single event is organized in these remote areas each year, which is not sufficient to attract attention to the tourist map. They are hopeful, as the department is considering development plans.
