FranceForget about fancy, domestic-popular, mediocre and overpriced overhyped Karimabad.
The real gem is the Wakhi village of Gulmit Gojal, a 30 minutes drive from the local bus station nearby Aliabad.
Peaceful and quiet village facing the river and the Karakoram mountain range, a short walk from Hussaini suspended bridge, and the jeep departure point to the secluded and beautiful Shimshal valley.
Ideally and central located but quiet from the main road. A rarity in Gulmit considering that other places are often overpriced and mediocre quality.
The welcoming and friendly Ahmed's family is the real gem here, a truly Wakhi hospitality and care for its customers, knowledgable about Balstistan and its culture, adding a value to what is already the best option by far compared to its competitors.
Highly recommended.
