HUNZA MISGAR مسگر ۔ TIME's

Misgar Valley is one of the most beautiful and geographically important regions of Gilgit-Baltistan. Misgar is home to the Mintika pass that connects Pakistan with China. The historic Kilik pass is also located in Misgar and it leads travelers to Afghanistan. The historic “Kalam Darchi Fort” [Fort of the Naked Saint], constructed by the Britishers to keep a watch on Russian and Chinese advances, is also located in Misgar. The fort is in a dilapidated condition and demands the attention of relevant authorities.
Hardly any valley in Gojal holds such jewels of history and is yet so little explored as Misgar.About 15km northwest of Sost, Misgar is the last permanently inhabited valley in Gojal with passes leading to China and Afghanistan. This strategic location bestowed on the area an important role in history. In the late 19th century, during the time of the Great Game, Misgar marked the last outpost of the British empire and served as a busy dispatching and telegraph station.
