| Located at 1072 m (3517 ft) in the Safed Koh, Khyber Pass is the most important pass connecting Pakistan and Afghanistan. Invaders historically used the pass to reach Afghanistan and India. The pass, which is controlled by Pakistan, continues to have both strategic as well as commercial significance, with a market center located at the highest point. | ||||||
