Hunza is the northernmost part of a region known as the Northern Areas of Pakistan . It comprises an area of 3,900 mi² (10,101 km² ) and borders China.
For many centuries it has provided the quickest access to Swat and Gandhara (in modern north Pakistan) for a person on foot. The route was impassible to baggage animals, only human porters could get through, and then only with permission from the locals.
