Gilgit Baltistan is the most spectacular region of Pakistan also known as “The jewel of Pakistan” in terms of its geography and scenic beauty.

Historically, the area has remained a flash point of political and military rivalries amongst the Russian, British, Chinese and Indian Dogra’s empires. Immediately after the end of British rule in the sub-continent in 1947, the people of this region decided to join Pakistan through a popular local revolt against the government of Maharaja of Kashmir.
