‘Welcome Our Hazir Imam’ inscribed on a mountain in Hunza Valley.
The attitude of the people in general was very warm and welcoming and this warmth was particularly heightened in the Hunza Valley. An elderly man approached us at Altit Fort in the beautiful Hunza Valley. After exchanging pleasantries, he told us all about the preparations underway in Hunza Valley to welcome the Aga Khan. “His Highness last visited us in Pakistan in 1987,” he said. “He will visit us again in December now.”
