Biafo Glacier | "Heaven on Earth"




Biafo Glacier

This is not Fox and Franz Josef Glacier, New Zealand.

This is Biafo Glacier - which is a 63 km long glacier in the Karakoram Mountains, Pakistan meets the 49 km long Hispar Glacier at an altitude of 5,128 m (16,824 feet) at Hispar La (Pass) to create the world's longest glacial system outside the polar regions.
[It is considered to be the most beautiful glacier of the world].
It is also called as "Heaven on Earth".

Pakistan has the most beautiful view of mountains on the planet!
