Which Chinese city is near to Khunjerab Pass?

Answer to one most common question: which Chinese city is near Khunjerab Pass, well Karakoram highway starts from Pakistan at the point of Hassan Abdal, a small city of the Attack district of Punjab province, and goes to the Chinese city of Kashgar in the western Xinjiang Uyghur.

Khunjerab pass weather goes up to a maximum of 30 C temperature, and in winter, it receives heavy snow that leads to it closing in winter from November to April.

As it all depends upon weather conditions, there is no specific time of opening and closing dates at the border. However, calling the highway helpline before traveling to the border is better.

The border remains open from Monday to Friday (5 days a week) from 9 am to 5 on the Pakistan border and 11 am to 8 pm on the Chinese border side of Beijing time. We arrange honeymoon, tailor-made, and group tour packages to Hunza and Khunjrab passes at economical prices.
