Islamabad : Hundreds of tourists were stuck in their vehicles as heavy snowfall blanketed Murree, a hill station near here.

The Murree region in Pakistan's Punjab province has witnessed heavy snowfall.

A good number of tourists reached Murree Thursday to witness snowfall, after the Met office's earlier forecast.

It snowed heavier than expected Saturday causing a gridlock on the roads, forcing tourists to spend the night in the freezing cold.
