Why KKH road is called 8th wonder ? complete journey to see what's in it ?

Here we discuss Why Karakoram Highway is called 8th wonder of the world. what is strange in it?

The Karakoram Highway is the great road in the north of Pakistan that connects the beloved homeland with China. It is also known as "Karakoram Highway", N-35 and "Silk Road". It crosses the world's great mountain ranges, the Karakoram and the Himalayas. It is the highest international highway in the world. The KKH was completed in 1986 in a span of 20 years and was jointly built by Pakistan and China. While building it, 810 Pakistanis and 82 Chinese sacrificed their lives, making it the longest road in Pakistan. Its length is 1300 km. It starts from Chinese city Kashgar and starts from Khanjarab, Sost, Flea, Attaabad, Karimabad, Aliabad, Hunza, Nagar, Gilgit, Deniwar, Jaglot, Chilas, Dasu, Patan, Besham, Mansehra, Abbottabad, Haripur. Hoi Hassan meets Abdal at GT Road. The Indus River, Gilgit River, Hunza River, Ataabad Lake, many ancient carved rocks, cemeteries, monuments, peaks of Nanga Parbat and Rakapushi, numerous glaciers and suspension bridges are located along it. Thus, this highway is one of the routes of the world which has great political, social and cultural significance. The Karakoram Highway is built in a difficult mountainous area, so it is also called the eighth wonder of the world. So many people have traveled on this highway many times but everyone's observations are different.in this video I will try to make you aware of the unique and unique aspects of all the areas where this road passes. Karakoram Highway was built after many sacrifices. It is learned that this highway used to start from Thakot district of Batgram but then it was extended to Hassan Abdal. Now it also includes a part of Hazara Motorway, but tourists like me get the feeling of Karakoram Road just by seeing Thakot Bridge, then Allah Pak has blessed the north of Pakistan with every blessing and beauty but If it were not for the Karakoram Highway, perhaps this beautiful face would have been hidden from the eyes of many of us. This road has proved to be a means of easily conveying the beauty and culture of Gilgit-Baltistan to us. Let's start our journey on this wonderful road and try to discover show you the beauty we have seen. The Karakoram Highway reaches Thakot through Hassan Abdal in the Punjab and the beautiful areas of Havelian, Abbottabad, Mansehra, Batgram and Buttal in the Hazara Division. Thakot is the last town of Batgram district after which Shangla district begins. Thakot is the place where Sher Darya, Lion River Sindh"( indus river) becomes your traveling companion and continues to do so until you get tired of it. You pass through Besham on the beautiful Chinese-built bridge of Thakot, which is the last major city on this route before Kohistan. Shortly afterwards, the Kohistan District begins. Kohistan is a vast area consisting of dry and barren mountains. It consists of Dir Kohistan, Swat Kohistan, Upper Kohistan, Lower Kohistan and Chilas Kohistan. It is a side-by-side mountain range characterized by barrenness and rugged mountains. we discussed and traveled to see.

Now you can earn money by hosting a International or Local guests. Make hospitality, make money

Monetize your room:

If your are living in home and one room is empty, or if your house is empty you can monetize that home by sharing your space to guest. Even if you are in hostel you can do this as well.
Some times some of your guest came to your home that is not your relative and you let me stay in separate drawing room, that is same we are discussing. But here you can earn up to 1000 dollars per month by sharing space or hosting a guest.

We will talk about the international multi national company  Airbnb. A‌i‌r‌b‌n‌b‌,‌ ‌I‌n‌c‌.‌ (airbnb.com) is a company based in San Francisco that operates an online marketplace and hospitality service. It allows people to lease or rent short-term lodging including holiday cottages, apartments, home stays, hostel beds, or hotel rooms, to participate in or facilitate experiences related to tourism such as walking tours, and to make reservations at restaurants. The company does not own any real estate or conduct tours; it is a broker that receives percentage service fees in conjunction with every booking. The company has over 5 million lodging listings in 81,000 cities and 191 countries and has facilitated over 300 million check in

There is no worrying about  who will be the guest ? what kind of people will they ? no .. as you have to register to that company after submitting Govt required documents. The company will register you their complete verification. As well as the guest will also registered with that company.
 Airbnb helps make sharing easy, enjoyable, and safe. They verify personal profiles and listings, maintain a smart messaging system so hosts and guests can communicate with certainty, and manage a trusted platform to collect and transfer payments.on the other hand you (Host) will be Insured under the the Host Protection Insurance, 
The Host Protection Insurance program provides primary liability coverage for up to $1,000,000 (One Million Dollar) per occurrence in the event of a third-party claim of bodily injury or property damage related to an Airbnb stay.

This coverage is subject to a $1,000,000 cap per listing location, and certain conditions, limitations, and exclusions may apply. Review the list of the covered countries.

The Host Protection Insurance program will only act as the primary insurance coverage for incidents related to an Airbnb stay, but it's available to hosts regardless of their other insurance arrangements.

Here are some examples of what the Host Protection Insurance program should cover:

• A guest breaks their wrist after slipping on the rug and brings a claim for the injury against the host.
• A guest is working out on the treadmill in the gym of the apartment building. The treadmill breaks and the guest is injured when they fall off. They bring a claim for the injury against the host and the landlord.
• A guest accidentally drops their suitcase on a third party's foot in the building lobby. The third party brings a claim for the injury against the host and the landlord of the host’s building.

Some examples of what the Host Protection Insurance program doesn’t cover:

• Intentional acts where liability isn’t the result of an accident.
• Accusations of slander or defamation of character.
• Property issues (ex: mold, bed bugs, asbestos, pollution).
• Auto accidents (ex: vehicle collisions).

For now, this policy only applies to hosts in covered countries. They’re working hard to expand this and other programs to hosts around the world. You can find the list of the covered countries at www.airbnb.com/host-protection-insurance.

How is the price determined for my reservation?

The total price of a reservation on Airbnb is based on a few factors. Note that the price is charged in full once a host accepts your reservation request (or if you use Instant Book).
