Chitral First Impression Pakistan 🇵🇰

In today's episode, we currently land in Chitral the northern regional area of Pakistan. We explore for one day while recovering from food poison the night before. We did our best to enjoy as much as we could with the little time we had before heading too kalash the following day.
Highly recommend travelling between March and September as the weather is perfect and not too cold.
Another video series is based in Pakistan. Our objective is to show you guys the true beauty of this country and how genuine, honest and welcoming the people can truly be. Please come along on our journey, We shall be staying for around 30-40days in this country and we would love you guys to be part of it! 😃 🇵🇰

Btw , these lighter "English" Pakistanis are not descended from Brits or modern Europeans but ancient Indo Iranian people who arrived from Central Asia 3600 years ago, that's why they look "ancient" also they are genetically similar to other Northern South Asians.

[@zay_kash]

Basically dardic groups

[@jdp5288]

Summer is the best time to enjoy Chitral & Kalash Valleys and the rest of northern Pakistan I guess, in Winter you don't get to see the full beauty of these areas

[@GlenAndMado]

I know, unfortunately, we didn't research what to expect, was a last-minute trip to Pakistan haha.

[@mariosaba2388]

You are courageous. When I get food poisoning, I can’t get out of bed. I usually need medicine and an inoculation!!

[@BugiAnsari]

Chitral from 15th Edition of the Encyclopedia Britannica published in 1985 Chitral, town, district, and former princely state, Malakand Division, North-West Frontier Province, Pakistan. The town and district headquarters of Chitral (Chitrar, or Qashqar) is on the Kunar River in a valley two miles (three kilometers) wide. At an elevation of about 4,900 ft (1,490 m) above sea level, the town has a government woolen and agriculture center, the Maghor (the fort of the former mehtar [chief]), a polo ground, and fruit gardens in the neighborhood. It is accessible via Dir and the Lowarai Pass (10.230 ft; and via Gilgit and the Shandur Pass (12,251 ft), and it is linked with Peshawar by air. The valley was conquered by the Chinese in the 1st century ac and ruled by them for several centuries. The people, converted to Islam in the 11th century, are members of the Isma'ili sect. The Mehtar (Prince) house. claiming descent from the Mughal emperor Babur, was founded in the 11th century. The practice of deriving income from the sale of Chitrali women, known for their beauty, in Peshawar and Afghanistan made Chitral a center for slave traders. In 1889 the British established a subsidiary agency at Mastuj for Chitral and maintained a garrison there until Pakistani independence in 1947. Khowari, the language of the Khos, the dominant tribe, is the lingua franca. The Chitralis are fine horsemen, and polo is the national game. Chiral District, occupying an area of 5,'134 sq mi ( 14,85 I sq km), is bounded on the north and west by Afghanistan and the Hindu Kush mountain range, on the south by Dir and Kilam in the Swat Kohist6n, and on the east by the Gilgit Agency. The Wakhan corridor separates it from the Tadzhik Soviet Socialist Republic. A scenic region of lofty ranges (Tirich Mir; 25,229 ft [7,690 ml.]), fertile valleys, and rich pine forests, it is drained by the Kunar River, which rises in the Hindu Kush, flows southwestward into Afghanistan (there called the Daryd-ye Konar), and joins the Kabul River just east of Jalalabad, after a 300-mi (480-km) course. Wheat, barley, corn (maize), and rice are the chief crops; walnuts, grapes, apricots, and mulberries are also grown. Minerals (iron ore, lead, copper, manganese, and antimony) are abundant but considered too remote to exploit. Daggers, sword hilts, and embroidered cloth are exported. Pop. (1972) town, 13,376; (1981 prelim.) district, 208,000.(JUST FOR Education Purpose only)...

Thanks for visiting Pakistan! Just discovered your videos so look forward to seeing your content. Just so you know, there are many different ethnic groups in Pakistan with a wide range of skin, hair and eye colours. The people in the mountainous regions of the indian subcontinent are fairer than the rest of south asia. They don't have English ancestors 😄 The people from these regions, especially gilgit baltistan have always looked like this. Red and blonde hair is very common here and among the pashtun people, these are tribes that live on the the pak Afghan border. On the food front, generally food is 100% safe to eat. Pakistani food is either boiled, fried, barbecued or grilled at very high temperatures. Just avoid anything thats been left out or isn't fresh. The most important thing is to avoid the local water, any salad that's been washed in it and especially Ice. If you want to try street food, try and eat the dishes at a cafe or restaurant, these places have better hygiene and use mineral water.

Great episode Mado

Story Of Pakool In Chitral Good filming, This is a 🕊💐🌸💮🏵🌹🥀🌺🌻🌷Pakool, پکول, or you might hear it called a Chitrali cap, or even just anDID AL cap. At any rate it’s an article of headwear from the Afghan/Pakistan borderlands with which we’re these days pretty familiar. If you visit that part of the world, it’s an obvious souvenir: I purchased this one, like generations of travelers before me, stay safe, Thanks for Giving Tipperary Peace award Twice to Pakistan,

Please always keep ORS(oral rehydration salt ) with you whenever you have food poisoning (diarrhea) take ORS one sachet in one litre of water take ORS water as much as you can plus tab ciprofloxacin 500mg 1+1 and tab flagyl 1+1 , ORS will rehydrate you & will keep your electrolytes optimal , ORS is available in every pharmacy in Pakistan ,you must keep in your bag & is very cheap , You must not travel a long journey by Such a bus , there much better options available all the time

[@YaserKhanVlogs]

Please use boiled water or bottle water, and do not eat salad which washed with tap water then you will be ok, and eat some banana, and take some tablets, like methodine, or emodiam etc

[@GlenAndMado]

Hey, that's what we've been doing but thanks for the advice. It was actually a little local restaurant that was open late as there weren't any other places open and we were hungry and had beef which glen got food poison from. I've heard the water in the north is pretty good compared to the south. northern region water is drinkable as I've drank it a few times and been not a problem.

[@YaserKhanVlogs]

@@GlenAndMado Yes great, Northern water is clean, i am from Swat but living in Uk, when ever i go back i drink my home water with no problem, jut keep bananas with you all the time and eat 2 after each meal( street food) then should be good.

The people in northern Pakistan are different than the rest of Pakistan , none of them has ancestors from Britain

[@muhammadmuhammad5051]

Not really, Northern Pakistan from the hunza, skardu, Kashmiri to Pathans and Kalash share same DNA. Also they mix with the other Pakistanis by marrying in so just different tribes.

[@mysteriousjz]

People of the subcontinent, from most Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, many Myanmar people, are descendants of Dravidian people. Hence, common DNA. But, Pakhtouns of Northern Pakistan and Afghanistan are Aryan people with different DNA. Hence, they look strikingly different. (Note, due to proximity with Dravidians, some of those another people may have intermixed with Dravidians over thousands of years)
