Situated on the bank of the Nagar river, it is the former capital of the princely state of Nagar. Today, the famous Karakoram Highway crosses Nagar, connecting Pakistan to China via the Khunjerab Pass. The road follows the Hunza-Nagar River for some distance through Nagar and into the hunza region. LocationNagar lies in the Nagar river valley, about five miles south-east of the junction of the Nagar river with the Hunza river just below Baltit.[2] The Nagar valley previously known as Broshal, is situated at an elevation of 2,438m (7,999 feet). Nagar Khas is the main town and the capital of the former State of Nagar. Ghulmet, Minapin, BAR, Chaprote and Hopper Valleys are popular tourist attractions in the Nagar region because of the spectacular scenery of the surrounding and the most intimidating high mountain peaks on earth such as Rakaposhi at 7,788m (25,561 feet), and Diran, and Spantik peak also known as (Golden peak) and several others to be discovered. History{{Main|Nagar (princely state)}}Following the Hunza-Nagar Campaign of 1889–1892 (known locally as the Anglo-Burusho war) the area passed under British control and then as a vassal of the Kashmir Durbar, but was ruled by the same royal family. In 1974, Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto dissolved the Princely States of Nagar and Hunza and gave democratic representation to the Northern Areas Council, now known as the Northern Areas Legislative Council.The British wanted to expand their trade to Russia from here, but the states wouldn't allow them to. Royal titles and stylesThe name for the ruler in Nagar was Thum (تھم) in Brushaski and (Ra-را) in Shina language, which is also a respectful appellation used by people of both Hunza and Nagar who belong to the clan of Boorish. The titles for prince and princess and the styles of Highness and Royal Highness for members of the Royal Family are still used here. In Hunza and Nagar Royal family men are called Gushpoor (گشپور) and Royal family women are titled as Soni (سونی).
