Mulkhow

Mulkhow lies in the mountain country of upper Chitral, among valleys draining towards the Chitral River. Local traditions remember rulers such as Bula Singh among the chiefs who held parts of this region before the rise of the later ruling houses. The neighbouring valleys came to be bound into the kingdom of Chitral, where the Rais, Kator and Khushwaqt families competed for power and mountain routes linked settlements across the Hindu Kush.
