This is the Baltic fort, a UNESCO world heritage site. Beautifully restored.
What a beautiful hotel here. I am so glad because I have had tummy upset and have had another rest day to recover.
Karimabad is the center of the tourism industry in Hunza and is very popular with Pakistani tourists. When I went to visit the Baltit fort this morning I followed along a group of Russian tourists. There was also a group of Slovenian tourists. I also met and chatted with a young Swiss couple on Honda dirt bikes who had come from Europe, through Russia, and China through the Khunjerab Pass to Hunza. Very nice couple.
