Front Face of Baltit Fort

The Baltit Fort stands on moraines of Ultar glacier in central Hunza valley among the high mountains of the karakorums in the northern areas of Pakistan. Which is the ever first restored monument of built heritage by the Aga Khan Trust for Culture-Geneva (1990 -1996), as a pilot project of currently on-going conservation of a number of old monuments of northern Pakistan. The Fort remains open all year round and seven days a week, with an idea of a self sustaining cultural centre with the support of its entry ticket sales, souvenirs and generous donations of individuals and organizations interested for the promotion and preservation of cultural and historical heritage of this part of world.
