[edit] Geography
The views in this area are quite scenic due to the topography of the land, 7 km away from Havelian is the Neelan or Ninlan valley, know locally as the 'Queen of beautiful valleys'. The Ninlaan Valley is located on the Lora Road in Abbottabad District. Most of the people of this valley are from Pathan & Karlal tribes. Along this valley runs the Neelan stream, the origins of this stream are in the Nara Hills through which the streams seems to have cut the valley over time. The waters and streams that flow from the Nara Hills are important to the villages of the Neelan Valley (such as Sareela, Punjgraan, Sultanpur, Sulhwala, Mala Wazir etc).
