Kailashis / the people from Kailash valley are the true descendents of the Alexander - The great, they are still living between two moutains in three small villages. The major village is called Bombharet and it is 1.5 hrs drive from Chitral. These people are not Muslims and they are still preaching the Gods which were preached in Alexanders time when he came here centuries ago. His army men marryed here and stayed here. Since that time Kailashis only married in their own tribe, even when Islam came Muslim didn't marry Kailashis and vice versa. This is how the genes of Kailashi people is still PURE. When you see them u can see the difference between an average Pakistani and them because they look so European, with white skin, bluish greenish eyes and curlish light brown hair like greeks ! Even greek government recognise them as their true descendents and nowdays they are making public facilities for the betterment of these people so that they continue living like in and do not get influenced by modernization.

Directions: Hire a jeep or a mini car from Chitral in 700 Rs. for days' visit to Kailash Valley. It is only 1 Hr 30 mins journey one way. Otherwise get on one of the public transport and stay in hotels in Kailash Valley.
