Baltit Fort

It was four o'clock in the evening and the atmosphere at our guesthouse was all sleepy and tiresome. Most of us were stretching their backs but the sleeping beauties were snoring. Well I think this is the best time to reveal the true identity of these sleeping beauty's family. The ones I had mentioned a couple of times before. No offense Api and party but I had to do it anytime soon. So the sleeping beauties were Api and her family. Always finding time and place to take naps. That evening they, along with Apa and half of her family were snoring before we knew it. Don't take them wrong seriously I myself was gladly willing to do so but fortunately my husband dragged me out of the room and almost ordered me to start the walk up the hill, towards the fort. I'm totally in debt with his actions because the ones who did not visited the fort that evening didn't had the chance to do it again. Unfortunately they had to skip that amazing fort's visit.
The walk up the hill or more over the stony path up the mountain was the hardest walk of all our expeditions. We were tired as hell. Our legs were stiff and we had to hike up by ourselves. Although there were stairs along the path then again we had to stop to charge ourselves.

Thanks to these Hunzai people they had made places to sit along the way. Plus the path was clean and very appealing, they had also planted many colorful flowery plants both sides of the path together with the shops for tourist attractions.
The view made our tiredness flew away. As it was enchanting. People by those shops were very hospitable. Old women were sitting by their home's main gate making different kind of stuff. Stuffs like embroidery patterns, wooden crafts and many more. We also saw kids playing near them. It was not more than a mile's walk but it sure seemed like millions.
