Hunza is a valley located in northern Pakistan, surrounded by mountains over 7,000 m high in the Karakoram range, bordering Xinjiang (China) in the northeast and the Wakhan corridor (Afghanistan) in the northwest. Hunza is known as a fairyland with natural scenery that is both majestic and fierce, but also very peaceful and gentle.
After the snowy night, the sky was still gray, occasionally a few rays of sunlight appeared, the ground was dotted with frost.
Hunza is divided into three geographical regions: Upper, Lower and Central Hunza. Each region is located at a certain altitude, so the weather and the types of plants and vegetables also have certain different characteristics. The flower blooming and planting chart, the season will go from low to high in spring, and vice versa from high to low for the fall foliage season.

It was spring but it was still snowing heavily. The school let the students leave early because their houses were very far from school.
Going to the field on a rainy day
The early spring sky is often not very clear, especially in the Upper region, gray clouds linger on the tops of the towering rocky or icy mountains, accompanied by cold winds. Wanderers absentmindedly admire the scenery, farmers hurry to carry hoes to the fields, regardless of heavy snow or harsh sunlight, smiles are always on their lips, children have clear eyes, spring weddings where people dance together... All, all have created a very gentle and captivating spring melody, truly worthy of the title tourists give Hunza: "the place where paradise is kept".

Live happily every day
Hunza is known as the land of the most beautiful women in the world but I find it more accurate to say the land of the most beautiful people in the world. The most attractive thing is their beautiful eyes.
