One of most dangerous road in world in Hunza valle





The most dangerous road in Hunza is the road that goes to Shimshal Hunza which is a small village in Upper Hunza .Every year many people sacrifice their lives when travelling through this dangerous route .This road is quite narrow and on winters generally due to the harsh climate (the temperature even below the freezing point of water) ,  the road is covered by the ice that is why it is really hard to travel in such harsh circumstances .Hence , this further increases the risk of accidents ,  and makes it the most dangerous road in Hunza
