While traveling from Naran toward Gilgit on Karakorum Highway, we get to an awesome place in Thalichi area, the Nanga Parbat Viewpoint. From this spot on a clear day, one can view the Peak of Nanga Parbat Mountain. Nanga Parbat at the height of 26,660 ft. above sea level is the ninth highest mountain in the world. It is the western anchor of the Himalayas around which the Indus River skirts into the plains of Pakistan. The impression after looking at the mighty Nanga Parbat is unexplainable.
