I made a quick trip to Kashmir's Neelum valley. Kashmir is
disputed region between India and Pakistan, only Pakistani nationals with ID
can enter the region. However, other nationals need permission prior to
arrival. Neelum valley is beautiful valley streching 140km along with Neelum
river, valley runs parrallel to Kaghan valley, curvey road often comes across
indian boarder areas, during bad days it is impossible to travel on this road.
We were able to travel till Taobat, which is last village of
Neelum valley and the end of the road. From Taobat, adventure seekers and
nomads continue on feet to enter glorious Gilgit Baltistan Region.
Narrow and bumpy road passes through forests enriched with
Cedar Deodar trees and beautiful villages with amazing Kashmir style wooden
houses, maize fields surround these villages. Each village has its own hydral
electricity plant built on small waterfalls, just enough to light up around 50
houses. Ancient Budhist University is located at Sharda which suggest deep connection
of region with rich historic background.
