Typical colourful Pakistani truck on the #SkarduRoad, a side road off the #KarakoramHighway. Photo snapped by #LonelyPlanet founder #TonyWheeler during his travels in #Pakistan -- one of the regions covered in his latest book "Dark Lands". A thin ribbon of asphalt strikes north from near Islamabad and leaves the modern capital and the dusty Punjab plains far behind. As it weaves through sparse green hills, this unassuming road gives little hint as to what lies ahead. This is the high road to China, the #KarakoramHighway (KKH), which was blasted and bulldozed through an intractable landscape of raging rivers, deep ravines and precipitous peaks in the 1960s and ’70s. It is a 1200km marvel of engineering and a symbolic collaboration between #Pakistan and China. The #KKH follows a branch of an ancient network of trade routes, takes you to where Buddhism spread to China and Tibet, to the colourful bazaar of #Kashgar, and to the intrigues of the 19th-century Great Game. As it traverses northern Pakistan and enters western China, via the #KhunjerabPass, the KKH navigates the highest concentration of soaring peaks and long glaciers in the world: a magnet for intrepid adventurers. #LonelyPlanet #Travel
