Karimabad and Baltit Fort

Baltit Fort is the former palace of the Mirs (rulers) of Hunza until 1960. It is now a museum dedicated to the conservation of the Hunza people’s history and culture. It soars above the village of Karimabad, with Ultar Peak and its glacier as a curtain backdrop and commands a majestic view of Mt. Rakaposhi and Diran Peak (7,266m).
