The Khunjerab Check Post is a bustling border crossing between Pakistan and China, located on the famous Karakoram Highway. Situated at an elevation of 4,693 meters, it holds the title of being the highest paved international border crossing in the world. This strategic pass serves as a vital link between the two countries, with daily bus services connecting Gilgit to Kashgar. The post also boasts the highest ATM in the world, making it a unique spot where left-hand traffic in Pakistan switches to right-hand traffic in China. It's a must-visit destination for travelers seeking breathtaking mountain views and a taste of cross-border adventure.
