7 beautiful photographs of the magnificent Minimarg Valley, Astore
Minimarg is one of the many villages located in the Astore District of Gilgit-Baltistan. It is a scenic valley located close to the world-famous Deosai plains. It is around 3500 meters above the sea level.
According to Shams Paras Qureshi, a local journalist, the name Minimarg actually means the place where “Mini” died. He said that Mini was reportedly the wife of a British officer deputed in the region during the colonial period.
“She was a very humble lady, liked by the people, so after her death in this area the picturesque valley became famous as Mini-Marg, or the place where Mini died”.
Very beautiful, worth travelling.
