Hidden in the heart of Chitral, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, the Kalash Valleys are one of the most fascinating destinations in Pakistan. Home to the Kalash people, believed to be descendants of Alexander the Great’s army, these valleys are world-famous for their unique culture, colorful festivals, and breathtaking landscapes.

The Kalash people celebrate three major festivals every year:
Chilimjusht (Spring Festival – May): Marks the arrival of spring with singing, dancing, and rituals.
Uchal (Harvest Festival – August): Celebrated after the wheat and barley harvest.
Choimus (Winter Festival – December): A 2-week celebration of the new year with traditional feasts and dances.
These festivals are a major attraction for international tourists who want to experience authentic living traditions.
