Important Places
The Shrine of Shah Sultan Alif above the Danyore tunnel, the Chinese Graveyard near the Karakoram Highway and the rock inscriptions in the Chikas locality are the widely visited tourist attractions. The Danyor Suspension Bridge, which was constructed over a half century ago, is quite a wonder; it connects the KIU Campus to the village. The Danyor end of the bridge enters a tunnel constructed by locals without any proper civil engineering equipments some 5 decades ago.
