In Hunza we have three old villages.Ganish village is the most
oldest village in Hunza.Basically Ganish means the ''junction of road''.
In ancient time the there was a ''Silk Route''going to different areas.

came in Hunza,the local people has built five mosque.Which its wood
carving is really interesting.And the pool in centre of Ganish Village
is brriliant,because the people said that,it used for training of swiming.
