The Hunza valley is a mountainous valley in the Gilgit–Baltistan region of P**istan. The Hunza is situated at an elevation of around 2,500 metres (8,200 ft). The territory of Hunza is about 7,900 square kilometres (3,100 sq mi). Aliabad is the main commercial town while Karimabad (old name Baltit) is a popular tourist destination because of the spectacular scenery of the surrounding mountains like

Ultar Sar, Rakaposhi, Bojahagur Duanasir II, Ghenta Peak, Hunza Peak, Passu Peak, Diran Peak and Bublimotin (Ladyfinger Peak), all 6,000 metres (19,685 ft) or higher. Hunza was formerly a princely state bordering Uyghurstan to the northeast and Pamir to the northwest, which survived until 1974, when it was finally dissolved by Zulfikar Ali Bhutto. The state bordered the Gilgit Agency to the south and the former princely state of Nagar to the east. The state capital was the town of Baltit (also known as Karimabad); another old settlement is Ganish Village. Hunza was an independent principality for more than 900 years. The British gained control of Hunza and the neighbouring valley of Nagar between 1889 and 1892 through a military conquest. The then Mir/Thum (Ruler) Mir Safdar Ali Khan of Hunza fled to Kashghar in China and sought what would now be called political asylum. Hunza has provided the quickest access to Swat and Gandhara for a person travelling on foot. The route was impassable for pack animals; only human porters could get through, and then only with permission from the locals. Hunza was easily defended as the paths were often less than 0.5 metres (20 in) wide. The high mountain paths often crossed bare cliff faces on logs wedged into cracks in the cliff, with stones balanced on top. They were also constantly exposed to regular damage from weather and falling rocks. These were the much feared "hanging passageways" of the early travel accounts that terrified several famous Chinese Buddhist monks such as Xuanzang. Hunza is divided into 3 Geographic Sub-Divisions: Lower Hunza (Shinaki), Central Hunza (Kanjud) and Upper Hunza (Gojal).

The journalist Fiza strongly reacted to the breaking of branches of fruit-bearing trees by tourists and taking them along.
Hopefully, tourists will consider the local customs and traditions in the future.

“Naṣīru’d-dīn had a very acute sense of grammatical structure. This was due to his learning many different languages and actually writing in many different languages - he wrote not only in Burushaski, but [also] Urdu, Persian and… Turkish. So he was able to see what structures languages had and how his own would fit into patterns… that was one of the means [by which] we were able to achieve such a rapid result that would have taken years of fieldwork… and so this is why we asked him to serve as a research associate and we were very glad that he was able to accept and come and work here with us”
