Bonjour from Hindu Kush, Chitral,

In response to the posted queries, the emails and calls from the travelers about the entry visa at Sust, let me update the forum.

The VOA at Sust for 30 days is still issued to the over-landers from China to Pakistan.

Later that could be extended at Gilgit, Skardu, Chitral and Islamabad.

This facility is almost for all the nationalities except Indian and Israeli passport holders.

Moreover, the Kalash Spring festival "Joshi" will be celebrated in the valleys of Rumbur and Bamborate (14th to 16th of May) in Chitral, Hindu Kush.

The wild Hindu Kush style polo, will be played at the highest polo terrain of the world, Shandur pass, from 7th to 9th of July.

So let's go to the land of mountain gods and enjoy the songs of fairies.

Bon voyage au Pakistan..

Hi Imran,

That's the exact info I've been looking for. The BBC finally had an article on the Hunza river lake and the possibility of it overflowing. I see that General Ashfaq Pervez Kayani, Chief of Army Staff,has just visited the lake, so now there might be some positive action taking place, Inshallah.

Has anyone come down the KKH from China this season yet?

Cheers,

Steve

Thanks Steve for the comments.

General Kiyani visited the lake and the calamity stricken people from Ata Abad yesterday and it seems the things are in the final stage and I hope it wouldn't affect the settlements on the banks of Hunza river.

I've not met any traveler from China yet, let's wait for some genuine travelers to come up with reviews.

Ciao,

Thanks for this good news! So I assume this means that Chinese officials are letting foreigners on busses without visas? thank you!
