Hunza is a place that every first-time visitor to Pakistan must visit, and it is a village that has been likened to "Shangri-La," reached by driving north through the Karakoram Highway along the Indus and Gilgit rivers.
The village is inhabited by beautiful people who speak Burushaski. You will have a consecutive stay in Karimabad, the center of Hunza, and visit Altit village, Nagar Valley, Duikar mountain view point, and the upper Hunza where the Wakhi people live, then also visit the Pakistan-China border at Khunjerab Pass. The valley is beautiful with apricot blossoms in spring, greenery in summer, and autumn color leaves in poplar trees.
