Notable Visitors
Nathiagali serves as the holiday home of several prominent Pakistani families. Some of these families have been frequenting the Galyat for 4-5 decades and own mountain properties and lodges where they tend to socialise together on an annual basis. Some of these families have helped in the renovation of the local church and mosque and in other social projects. There are also a few properties leased by multinationals and other organisations as holiday homes for their executives.

Famous quotes containing the words notable and/or visitors:
“Every notable advance in technique or organization has to be paid for, and in most cases the debit is more or less equivalent to the credit. Except of course when it’s more than equivalent, as it has been with universal education, for example, or wireless, or these damned aeroplanes. In which case, of course, your progress is a step backwards and downwards.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
“Neighboring farmers and visitors at White Sulphur drove out occasionally to watch ‘those funny Scotchmen’ with amused superiority; when one member imported clubs from Scotland, they were held for three weeks by customs officials who could not believe that any game could be played with ‘such elongated blackjacks or implements of murder.’”
—For the State of West Virginia, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
