Amazing and stunning landscape and breathtaking pictures...looks a bit unreal. A surreal fantasy land.


...just to add GB region in Pakistan has one of the highest literacy rate at 90%, and the picture below shows the reason. Some of the best school systems run by many foundations there by AKF and many others.

And in women literacy it is also way ahead...one reason in GB you won't see littered garbage, polythene bags are banned there. Not a single tree is cut, only fallen branches are used by low income village people for cooking and in winters, streams and rivers are all clean and all organically grown fruits and vegetables.

KPK, Chitral region has lots of similarities as people there also known to be very cultured and organized. Many other areas too in Pakistan...
