Hunza Valley is a mountainous area in Gilgit Baltistan, Pakistan. Hunza was formerly a princely state, bordering China to the north-east and Pamir to its northwest, which survived until 1974, when it was dissolved by Zulfikar Ali Bhutto. The state bordered the Gilgit Agency to the south, the former princely state of Nagar to the east. The state capital was the town of Baltit (also known asKarimabad) and its old settlement is Ganish Village.

Great time to visit Karimabad and the Hunza Valley is from Apirl to October best to avoid June to August if you do not like crowds. The Hunza Valley can get quite crowded during the midsummar months as both the local and the Chinese tourists flock the place when the temperature is nice and warm
