In this vlog, we take you to the remote village of Hunza Khudabad and celebrate one of the main traditional festival of Hunza named Ginani. You will also find some beautiful scenes of Karakorum highway and Attabad lake and Attabad tunnels.
Ginani is observed as a celebration of a crop that has come into a position to be harvested. Hunza/Nagar valleys were once remote mountainous valleys, that were subjected to sporadic famines. So the farmers celebrated that their crops are not damaged by extreme weather conditions and they can survive the harsh seasons coming their way.
Hunza Valley is considered one of the most beautiful valleys of Gilgit-Baltistan. It consists of Upper Hunza, Central Hunza, and Lower Hunza. Karimabad is the major city of the valley and has all facilities for mountaineers and tourists. The popularity of the Hunza Valley and the amount of tourism there is due in part to its relative accessibility and proximity to the Karakoram Highway.
Major tourist attractions in Hunza are:
Attabad Lake - A major lake of Hunza Valley. It was created following a landslide at Hunza River near Attabad village on 4 January 2010. The resulting damming of the river caused the lake to slowly form, submerging several villages and displacing up to 6,000 people.
Baltit Fort - An old medieval fort located in Karimabad. It is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Hussaini Suspension Bridge - A long wooden suspension bridge over Hunza River near Husaaini village. It is sometimes referred locally to as the "Indiana Jones Bridge" It is termed as one of the most dangerous bridges in the world.
Khunjerab Pass - At 4,693 meters, this is the highest border crossing in the world. It is also the only modern crossing on the China-Pakistan border. Most tourists visit on a day trip from Hunza to see the border and then leave. The surrounding area is also a part of the Khunjerab National Park, which was set up to protect local, endangered wildlife, specifically the Marco Polo sheep.
Rakaposhi is a mountain in the north of Pakistan in the Karakoram mountain range. It is situated in the Nagar valley in Gilgit Baltistan
Attabad lake is also situated in Hunza Nagar. Attabad lake is one of the most beautiful lakes in Pakistan
