Our Trip to Gilgit-Baltistan, Pakistan

To be honest, I've never written a travel blog before so I'm not sure how to go about it but here goes. My husband and I took a weeks trip to GB, Pakistan from 9th-16th July. Since, we were travelling together for the first time we weren't looking for adventure, tourism. We were just looking to getaway, relax and spend some quality time together. I'm going to use this space to answer the most commonly asked questions about our trip. We took a bus from Islamabad, that took us straight to Gilgit. It's called 'NATCO' which is short for The Northern Areas Transport Corporation. It took us about 16 hours to get there with a about 3-4 stops in the middle.

"Baba Ghundi"By Tabish Sethi

Beyond Zood Khun (the last of the nine villages of Chapursan valley) is the mystical and holy Baba Ghundi Ziarat, a shrine to a Sufi saint said to have miraculous powers, and a popular pilgrimage site. The shrine is surrounded by meadows which hosts herds of sheep in summer and sporadically from June to September, Kyrgyz traders from Afghanistan who traditionally cross the Irshad Pass with horses, yaks and sheeps to trade with the Chapursan villagers. Baba Ghundi is the most important shrine in Hunza-Gojal. The end-point of Chapursan valley right after Pakistan border police's check post. Beyond this point you crossover to Afghanistan and Wakhan corridor. Trekking from Zood Khun to Baba Ghundi takes somewhere about 4 hours.
