Pakistan itself is a beautiful place to visit but just imagine if a foreigner visits Pakistan and misses or forgets to come to the northern region of Pakistan then trust me the visit to Pakistan is incomplete. The northern parts of Pakistan i.e Gilgit Baltistan: “The Mother Of Mighty Mountains, historical places and pure nature”.
Each year a lot of tourists come to Pakistan especially to visit Gilgit Baltistan. This beautiful place provides you:

A task was given to Rehmatullah Baig by an Italian NGO in July 2014, a team consisting of 35 members of which six members were Pakistani completed the task to measure the height of the K-2. It was found by their six reports that the height is gone down by 2 meters, that is now the height is 8609. They used 5300-meter length ropes to complete the task. It was first measured by an Italian mountaineer Lino Licodi in 1954
