A Brief History of Hot Air Balloons
Hot air ballooning is one of the oldest forms of human flight. The first successful manned hot air balloon flight took place in 1783 in France, created by the Montgolfier brothers. Their invention amazed Europe, allowing humans to rise into the sky for the first time purely through heated air and lightweight fabric balloons.
Since then, hot air ballooning has evolved from a scientific experiment into a popular adventure and leisure activity worldwide. Today, people enjoy it not only for the thrill of flying but also for the breathtaking scenic views it offers — and now, Islamabad residents can experience this historic and magical adventure right in their own city.
