Mukeshpuri
Mukeshpuri or Moshpuri is a high mountain in the Nathiagali Hills, in the Abbottabad District of the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province in northern Pakistan. It is north of Islamabad, just above Dunga Gali in the Nathiagali area of Ayubia National Park. Much of it the mountain is covered with Western Himalayan subalpine conifer forests. ==Etymology== The name Mukeshpuri is possibly derived from the Sanskrit words: Moksha (liberation) and Puri (city). Mukeshpuri has a special of significance for the Hindus because of the Legends relating it to the Pandavas of the Mahabharata. There are the five Pandavas, the heroes of the Mahabharata, who are favourite objects of worship in the east and sometimes addressed as the Panj Pir (five saints). Many are the legends current about these heroes and they are localised at quite a number of places. The Hill of Mokshpuri's name means 'the hill of salvation' and on its summit is a ''Panduan da Sthan'', or place of the Pandavas.〔A glossary of the tribes and castes of the Punjab and North -West provinces, compiled by H A Rose, Vol I Page 120〕
